The auction is set to take place November 8th and 9th and features 376 lots broken into four sections:

Precursors, containing pre-romantic material, noir fiction, and material by the Marquis de Sade.
Romanticism.
Material by Gustave Flaubert.
Modern material by realists and dreamers.
Highlights of the sale are numerous. The item with the single highest estimate is an autograph manuscript by Flaubert of Par les Champs et les Grèves (Voyage en Bretagne), an account of his travels in Britain with Maxime du Camp. The manuscript is heavily annotated and revised throughout, serving as Flaubert’s working copy, and carries an estimate of €400.000-600.000.

The collection of Bergé was amassed over fifty years, with an eye and a passion for the material that few, if any, possess. This fact, combined with a financial situation conducive to collecting allowed him to acquire the best of the best for subjects he focused on. The following items are but a few indicators of the quality of his collection:

A first edition copy of Victor Hugo’s La Légende des Siècles and the only copy printed on vellum. Est. €60.000-80.000.
Another copy of Baudelaire’s Les Fleurs du Mal, this one a better copy than the lot offered in the first sale. It was bound by Lortic, Baudelaire’s favorite binder and contains an inscription to Alcide-Pierre Grandguillot, chief editor of the Constitutionnel du Pays. Est. €100.000-150.000.
A first edition of Arthur Schopenhauer’s Die Welt als Wille und Vorstellung, and the only known copy in private hands of the rare larger paper printing. Est. €40.000-60.000.
A first edition of Walt Whitman’s Leaves of Grass, one of 795 copies printed at the author’s expense and one of 599 bound in green cloth. Est. €40.000-50.000.
A first edition of Oscar Wilde’s The Ballad of Reading Gaol, one of 30 large paper copies on Japan paper and contains a four-page signed autograph letter by Wilde to his editor Leonard Smythers.
A rare first trade edition of Fyodor Dostoyevsky’s Crime and Punishment [in Russian] in its original first Russian binding. Est. €30.000-40.000.
A first edition set of Leo Tolstoy’s War and Peace [in Russian], containing all six volumes. Est. €20.000-30.000.

Samsung - Good Stuff
Size: 32-inch
If I could get my kid's face out from in front of it for a few minutes, I might write a better, perhaps more technical review than this: Bought it for her birthday (along with a gaming PC) and have not seen her since then, as she sit's in front of it gaming all the time now. Samsung makes great stuff, price was perfect, maybe I'll get a good look at it someday.

A fantastic display for both gaming and productivity.
Size: 32-inch
The Odyssey G55C delivers a remarkably immersive experience. The 1000R curvature naturally fits the field of view and significantly enhances focus during work or gaming. The QHD resolution paired with 165Hz refresh rate produces a sharp, smooth, and responsive display. HDR10 improves contrast, and AMD FreeSync ensures tear-free motion. Even for long working hours, the Eye Care features help reduce fatigue. Pros: Deep 1000R curve enhances immersion. Sharp QHD resolution with 165Hz smoothness. Excellent color and contrast for its price range. Low input lag, great for gaming and productivity. Anti-glare coating works well. Cons: Limited USB ports (typical of gaming monitors) Stand allows tilt only—no height adjustment. Verdict: A fantastic display for both gaming and productivity. This monitor provides premium performance at an exceptional value.

Top tier gaming monitor
Size: 32-inch
This monitor is the best of its class. The picture on it is better compared to its competitor, the LG ultra gear. The monitor allows you to maximize your Series X refresh rate. The HDR mode is actually brighter than statistics would give it credit for. LG's model has the same nits (300) but this literally just looks better. I just wish the stand was different, it could go without being completely plastic and awkward and non-adjustable. It has the proper mounting holes however so that it may be mounted.

Great monitor but not the monitor stand
Size: 32-inch
Overall, this is a very good monitor for the price. The picture quality is excellent, and the difference compared to my previous 27-inch 1080p monitor is immediately noticeable. The curved screen adds to the viewing experience, and there are plenty of settings available to customize the display, including good brightness options. My main complaint is the stand. It feels a bit cheap due to its plastic construction and lack of adjustability. Considering the quality of the monitor itself, a better stand would have been nice. The monitor does not include built-in speakers, which wasn't an issue for me but may matter to some buyers. Despite the stand, this monitor offers great value and delivers excellent overall performance.

Great for Videos and browsing
Size: 32-inch, Size: 32-inch
I did not buy this for gaming. I wanted a second monitor to browse while playing video games. With that being said it has great picture and doesn’t have any issues with refresh or delivering crisp picture quality. YouTube videos at 4K resolution is almost perfect. Its functions are user friendly and not complicated at all. The stand is rather long because of it being 32” and curved but it is strong and stable. It was super simple to connect and had no issues with compatibility with my PC. I wouldn’t use this for gaming especially if your running a high performance GPU. I’d spend a few hundred more for a better performing monitor
