I don't think there is anything in the Grolier collection that would shed light on Voynich's acquisition of the VMS...there's a very small folder with some correspondence from the late 1890s, and then nothing until after about 1920, ending in the early 1930s. The correspondence is between Nill and the London office...this is because the collection focuses on his New York business, which got started several years after he acquired the VMS. I didn't see anything having to do with the Vatican. As for digitizing, the Grolier doesn't yet have a systematic digitization project, but as you know, Rene, at least some of the information about the manuscripts Voynich bought/sold is discoverable in the Schoenberg Database (You are not allowed to view links.
