With the Wagner the person who sold or consigned the book and the antique dealer most likely wouldn't know it was in there.
Maybe the reason for my gut distinction is that the Mantle hypo is face to face, but the Wagner isn't, and there's no deal to be made, the book owner has already given up the book? Not sure.
