The justification was that it was just to set a base price for an auction and actually they were put on auction in small lots by an auction firm (I faintly remember probably christie).
Almost them all were featured in a pdf catalogue divided in lots for an auction and in the following catalogues.
I have the ctalogues in pdf somewhere in my backups since I was contacted by the auction house for a bid but the mediation fee was too high.
I don't think that they found a common house, even if this was the intention of the family. It is likely that they wer purchased as a lot by the auction house and put for sale in batches.
Pity since they were outstanding

If you find the catalog of the auction I'd love to see it!
