Description
4to., with a coloured facsimile as frontispiece, a full-page portrait in monochrome, and 8 fine coloured facsimiles (6 full-page); original pictorial wrappers, a fine copy. The earliest surviving autograph manuscript on (arguably) the principal scientific theory of the twentieth century, the longest of the three major manuscripts on relativity theory, and the only one not in an institutional collection. The estimate was US$4m-6m.
