Default 1959 Topps complete set purchase what is your opinion?

I have been offered a complete 1959 Topps set in average vg-ex condition. Not graded. In fact it is the original owner who collected it in early 1960's. My questions are:

Would you break up a set that has great provenance from the original owner who collected it one card at a time when the set was newly offered?

If you would break it up, how much of a profit could one expect to make parting it up? (of course it depends on the purchase price but consider that I bought it at fair market value of $1500, for a VG-EX set and sell it at fair market value one card at a time. What percentage of increase could I expect?)
