Among the few dozen offers, the sale to Volks Inc. was decided on the condition that Kachuan and the Seiho Takeuchi Memorial Museum in the same compound would be preserved, and Seiho's representative work 'Kinjishi' (金獅) and the other remaining collections containing about 70 items were handed over at the end of November 2003.
数十件の購入申し出があったが、霞中庵や同じ敷地内にある竹内栖鳳記念館の保存を条件に株式会社ボークスへの売却が決まり、売却されずに残された栖鳳の代表作「金獅」など、所蔵絵画約70点を含め同11月末に引き渡された。
