Is this some of the stuff that was disposed of when the Pattern Room collection was thinned out when it was closed....??

It is the collection of the late Robert Faris an American collector. The executors had tried to sell the collection as a whole at $1 Million plus. One wealthy British dealer considered it but decided against as it would have taken about 2 years to organize all the shipping cataloguing and selling at various auctions to make it worth while.
I have a DVD of the entire collection but cannot find it at the moment.
