Tapling Collection

The Tapling Collection was donated to the British Museum from the estate of Thomas Tapling in 1891.
The probate value of the Tapling collection was set at £12,000 but on arrival Richard Garnett (assistant keeper of Printed Books) estimated their value at more than £50,000 and described the bequest as the most valuable gift since the Grenville Library in 1847 (equivalent to £24,000,000 in 2011).〔The figure of £24 million ignores any increase in value due to age of the collection and is calculated with average earnings increase since 1891.
