Schøyen Collection is being sold

Martin Schøyen has grown rather old and is selling/donating his collection. I shall endeavor to find out what is happening to this Liber extra manuscript. Relatively few items (but including the large batch of materials from Sir Thomas Phillipps: his own catalogues, private prints, etc.) have been donated to the Cathedral School in Oslo. Most is being sold at auction. The Norwegian National Archives have prohibited the export of some Norwegian items that they themselves are acquiring, but this is mostly charters.
