I had always thought that this particular ms was kept in a public library somewhere. But the simple fact that it is now on auction (together with other, much older, mss) suggests that all these mss are (still) privately owned. Personally, I can only hope that one of the world's libraries will be in the position to acquire one or more of these mss! Were it just for the sake of having access to them.
