Série complète des catalogues de la fameuse vente Breton qui constituent une inestimable documentation : livres (2 vol.), manuscrits, arts populaires, tableaux modernes (2 vol.), photographies, arts primitifs.André Breton (1896-1966) s'installe au 42 rue Fontaine au début des années 20. Il y accumule au fil du temps un bric-à-brac fabuleux, un cabinet de curiosité dont seul un mur à été reconstitué au Centre Pompidou. Dans En lisant en écrivant (Corti, 1980), Julien Gracq en fait une belle description : "Les deux pièces, décalées en hauteur par un court escalier, même par les jours de soleil et malgré les hauts vitrages d’atelier, m’ont toujours paru sombres. La tonalité générale, vert sombre et brun chocolat, est celle des très anciens musées de province – plus qu’au trésor d’un collectionneur, le fouillis impossible à dépoussiérer complètement (…) fait songer à première vue (…) à la fois à un cabinet de naturaliste et à la réserve, en désordre, d’un musée d’ethnographie. Le foisonnement des objets d’art cramponnés de partout aux murs a rétréci peu à peu l’espace disponible".
