The link above takes you to an auction that will now appropriately go to the museum. I'm am not 100% certain, but it looks like the kit was sold by one of the Glawson brothers.

Thanks to Jeff Lang for alerting me of the piece. I called Tod Swormstedt a few hours before the auction end to make sure he knew about it. He immediately bid and turned out to be the only bidder. Gemini donated quite a bit of money to the museum to document and purchase pieces for a "history of letters" wall. Congratulations to the museum for the nice addtion!
