Yes, although it's not quite apples-to-apples because in fact those 229 surely include leaves from many more copies than that. We could easily have parts of 400 copies in those 229.

In 1959, it was on loan to Lehigh, and Frank Hook discussed it in PBSA 53: 334-8. Honeyman's books ultimately went to Sotheby's. The F1 disappeared.
The copy is now in private hands but it resurfaced when it was exhibited at Christie's in May 2023:

This F1 was owned in the 17th century by a Cheshire gentleman and lawyer Randall Brereton.
In 1934, it was acquired from "one of the oldest titled families in England" by the NY dealer Gabriel Wells. He sold it to Robert Honeyman, an engineer, collector, and Lehigh U alum.

π£π’π£We've just added a First Folio (SC 5381). The "Honeyman copy" is listed as untraced in both West and Rasmussen & West, but it is now confirmed. It has interesting MS corrections and references to (nonexistent??) quartos of 2H4 (1639) and R3 (1624).
