In 1957, under the will of the 16th Baroness Wentworth, it passed to her Land Agent, Mr Gladstone Moore and thence by descent. " Some lots with manuscript prices added, otherwise Very Good. Laid in is a printed slip noting the withdrawal of some of The Byron lots because of uncertainty over title. N° de ref. del artículo ABE-48612
