>         SAN FRANCISCO - In an announcement made yesterday, March 15,
>         PBA Galleries confirmed that a major American research
>         institution has purchased via private treaty the rare and
>         extensive collection of Henry Miller items that were to be
>         auctioned on March 18, 2010 as part of the Library of Roger
>         Wagner. The collection of important manuscripts, letters, and
>         archival material by the acclaimed American novelist and
>         members of his circle includes the typed manuscript for the
>         first draft of Tropic of Capricorn and Henry Miller's Paris
>         notebooks. "The literary significance of these extraordinary
>         notebooks can hardly be overstated," a press release from PBA
>         Galleries states. "They capture the thoughts and reflections
>         of Miller during his time of greatest creativity, and provide
>         the basis for the works which were to make him famous." The
>         material in the collection is from Miller’s personal archives.
>         In addition to his own manuscripts and letters, there are
>         letters from his many friends and literary associates,
>         including Anais Nin, Lawrence Durrell, Erica Jong and others.
>
>         Roger Wagner commented, "I'm happy to know that this important
>         archive will stay together and be accessible to the scholars
>         and fans of Henry Miller."
