Answer:

Femi's possession of the collection satisfies the perfection requirement because it puts the third party on the notice of Femi's interest in the property

Step-by-step explanation:

Uniform commercial code are laws that govern business transaction in the USA

As at the time of forming the agreement , document of title ,financial statement , written security agreement were not party of the agreement.

Moreover , the agreement was that Femi will be in possession of the book until full but not partial payment is made

Bringing up such is a breach of contract agreement by Milt.

Moreover , this has also made Orin to know that Femi has an interest in the item being offered to her as this has not been disclosed to her by Milt. Therefore Orin can be cautious of the transaction.
