EINSTEIN ALBERT; KARSH YOUSUF
Portrait Photograph of Albert Einstein signed by Yousuf Karsh
Princeton NJ: np 1948. framed. Fine. ONE OF THE MOST CELEBRATED IMAGES OF EINSTEIN SIGNED BY MASTER PHOTOGRAPHER YOUSUF KARSH. On February 11 1948 Yousuf Karsh perhaps the most accomplished portrait photographer of his generation visited The Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton to fulfill a dream of his: to photograph Albert Einstein. As he later explained: "Among the tasks that life as a photographer had set me a portrait of Albert Einstein had always seemed a 'must' - not only because this greatest refugee of our century has been accounted by all the world as the most outstanding scientist since Newton but because his face in all its rough grandeur invited and challenged the camera." Karsh: Beyond the Camera David Travis ed. "At Princeton's Institute for Advanced Study I found Einstein a simple kindly almost childlike man too great for any of the postures of eminence. One did not have to understand his science to feel the power of his mind or the force of his personality" official Karsh website. "Awed before this unique intellect I yet ventured to ask Einstein his views on human immortality. He mused for a moment and then replied 'What I believe of immortality There are two kinds. The first lives in the imagination of people and is thus an illusion. There is a relative immortality which may conserve the memory of an individual for some generations. But there is only one true immortality on a cosmic scale ant that is the immortality of the cosmos itself. There is no other.' "He spoke of these ultimate mysteries as calmly as he might a student's question about mathematics - with such an air of quiet confidence indeed that I found his answer profoundly disturbing to one who held other views. Knowing him to be an accomplished violinist I turned the conversation and asked if there were any connection between music and mathematics. 'In art he said 'and in the higher ranges of science there is a feeling of harmony which underlies all endeavour. There is no true greatness in art or science without that sense of harmony. He who lacks it can never be more than a great technician in either field.' "Was he optimistic about the future harmony of mankind itself He appeared to ponder deeply and remarked in graver tones: 'Optimistic No. But if mankind fails to find a harmonious solution than there will be disaster on a dimension beyond anyone's imagination.' To what source should we look for the hope of the world's future 'To ourselves' said Einstein. He spoke sadly yet serenely as one who had looked into the universe far past mankind's small affairs. In this humor my camera caught him. the portrait of a man who had traveled beyond hope or despair." Yousuf Karsh Regarding Heroes. Opening quote from: Colin Naylor ed. Contemporary Photographers. Silver print. Photo taken Princeton 1948. Printed later. Signed by Karsh in full beneath the image on photographer's mount. With Karsh's original calling "card" - a 4x10 inch cardboard slip - included. Image: 8x9 inches. Framed to an overall size of 12x15 inches. Fine condition. np unknown books

Relativity The Special and General Theory
New York: Henry Holt 1920. First Edition. Cloth. Good . First US edition first printing octavo size 182 pp. The name "Albert Einstein" 1879-1955 immediately conjures up in the mind of almost everyone the image a brilliant scientist whose research and findings are comprehensible to only a few. He would be awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1921 the year after this book was published and his work led to ideas such as spacetime length contraction neutron stars and black holes - along with many other scientific concepts still being explored today. <br/><br/>Einstein published works on "special relativity" as early as 1905 and by 1916 would publish the final form of "general relativity". The two would come together in this work "Relativity The Special and General Theory" first published in London by Methuen in 1920 and in the same year in the US by Henry Holt. In addition to the sections on "The Special Theory of Relativity" and "The General Theory of Relativity" is included a special part "Considerations on the Universe as a Whole" which according to the translator's note was "written specially for this translation" p. ix. <br/><br/>___DESCRIPTION: Bound in full navy blue cloth over boards gilt lettering on the front blind-debossed ruled borders on the front frontispiece a half-tone reproduction of an etching of Einstein in 1920 by Hermann Struck a German-Jewish artist well known for his etchings; octavo size 8 3/8" by 5 5/8" pagination: i-iv v-xiii blank xiv 1-168. <br/><br/>___CONDITION: A bit better than good the boards mostly clean with a few light specks straight corners with minimal rubbing a strong square text block with solid hinges the interior clean and entirely free of prior owner markings; rubbing with slight fraying of the cloth at the head and tail of the spine gilt lettering on the spine has rubbed off leaving debossed lettering the aforementioned light rubbing to the corners an old dampstain at the top fore-edge corner from the front free endpaper through p. 2 a few upper corners bent only the outer quarter-inch by a prior owner offsetting from an old clipping on pp. 16 and 17 and uniform light toning throughout. <br/><br/>___CITATIONS: Printing and the Mind of Man no. 408; online American National Biography and a bit from Wiki. <br/><br/>___POSTAGE: International customers please note that additional postage may apply as the standard does not always cover costs; please inquire for details.<br/><br/>___Swan's Fine Books is pleased to be a member of the ABAA ILAB and IOBA and we stand behind every book we sell.

Einstein Albert; Lionel S. Reiss
Albert Einstein Signed Etching.
1921. Etched portrait of Albert Einstein by well-known Polish-American Jewish artist Lionel S. Reiss. Signed by both Einstein and Reiss. In fine condition. Double matted and framed the entire piece measures 13.5 inches by 16.5 inches. An exceptional piece. Polish-American Jewish painter Lionel S. Reiss immigrated with his parents to the United States in 1898 at the age of four joining the ranks of other Eastern European Jews fleeing their native countries at the start of the 20th century. His family settled in New York's Lower East Side where Reiss would ultimately spend the majority of his life and become an established portraitist particularly known for his intimate portraits of Jewish people. In 1938 Reiss published his book My Models Were Jews in which he argued against the idea of a singular "Jewish Ethnicity" and that the Jewish people were rather a cultural group composed of a number of significantly diverse communities. unknown books

One of only 450 in the edition. "In 1946 when Albert Einstein was in residence at Princeton University Fred Stein was granted ten minutes of the great man's time to take a portrait. After the time was up Einstein's secretary came in to usher Stein out. However Einstein insisted that he stay saying that their discussion was too interesting to cut short. The secretary came back repeatedly but the visit extended to two hours. The resulting portrait by Fred Stein pictures a deep intelligence engaged in thought. It became an iconic image and one of the most famous photographs ever taken of Albert Einstein" Dawn Freer "Fred Stein: A Retrospective".

EINSTEIN ALBERT; TOLMAN RICHARD C.; PODOLSKY BORIS
Knowledge of Past and Future in Quantum Mechanics
Lancaster: Physical Review 1931. First Edition. Original wrappers. Fine. FIRST EDITION FIRST PRINTING IN ORIGINAL WRAPPERS of Einstein's paper outlining a thought experiment to suggest that the uncertainty principle requires the acknowledgement of an indeterminate past. "To Heisenberg at the 1920's only the prediction of the future was important and the mathematical theory assisted him to calculate the probability of the end-state given the initial state: the description of the intermediate development of the system between two objectively recorded or recordable states did not seem to correspond to physical reality. <br /> <br /> "On the other hand Einstein as a critic of quantum physics did not admit Heisenberg's standpoint especially that the indeterminacy principle does not refer to the past. In the paper 'Knowledge of Past and Future in Quantum Mechanics' 1931 Einstein proposed an imaginary experiment in which 'the possibility of describing the past path of one particle would lead to predictions as to the future behavior of a second particle of a kind not allowed in the quantum mechanics.' So Einstein concluded that 'the principle of the quantum mechanics must involve an indeterminacy in the description of past events which is analogous to the indeterminacy in the prediction of future events.'<br /> <br /> "This should be understood in the context of Einstein's argument against the 'completeness' of quantum physics just in the same way that the purpose of the EPR argument 1935 was to show that the 'completeness' of quantum physics would lead to absurdity. In other words Einstein did not positively assert the existence of indeterminate past events but only intended to deduce it as the necessary conclusion of the 'completeness' of quantum physics.<br /> <br /> "The problem of the 'indeterminate' past re-appeared about fifty years later in J. A. Wheeler's discussion of the 'delayed-choice' experiment. This experiment is not an imaginary but an actual one which uses one particle say photon instead of two particles in Einstein's case.<br /> <br /> "After confirming the fact that what we can say of past events is decided by delayed choices made in the near past and now Wheeler discusses the possibility that the phenomena called into being by the present decision can reach backward in time even to the earliest days of the universe. He says:<br /> <br /> 'To use other language we are dealing with an elementary act of creation. It reaches into the present from billions of years in the past. It is wrong to think of the past as "already existing" in all detail. The "past" is theory. The past has no existence except as it is recorded in the present. By deciding what questions our quantum registering equipment shall put in the present we have an undeniable choice in what we have the right to say about the past.'<br /> <br /> "The interpretation of the indeterminacy principle will be altered if we accept the concept of the past indeterminacy. Heisenberg originally considered this principle as the limit of the exactitude of two incommensurable quantities at the simultaneous measurement. But the indeterminacy of past events which have not been recorded have a connection not with their simultaneous measurability but rather with the definability of their historic routes. That the definition of the past route or history of a particle depends on the present choice of an experimenter is the meaning of the 'indeterminate past'" Yutaka Tanaka "The 'Individuality of a Quantum Event". Weil 178.<br /> <br /> IN: Physical Review pp. 780-781 Vol. 37 No. 6 March 15 1931. Octavo original wrappers; custom box. Only slight wear to wrappers.

EINSTEIN Albert
Autograph postcard signed with original sketches
1923. Signed. EINSTEIN Albert. Autograph postcard signed with original sketches. Near Jerusalem circa February 5 1923. Postcard illustrated with a rendering of the Red Star Liner Belgenland measuring 5-1/2 by 3-1/2 inches with two sketches by Einstein on the recto and autograph letter by Einstein in German along with an autograph letter by his traveling companion on the verso. $49000.Extremely rare autograph postcard signed written by Einstein during his visit to Palestine�one of only a couple manuscript items from this visit known to exist�featuring a very rare self-portrait sketch by Einstein as well as a sketch of the traveling companion he mentions in his letter. Letter in German.Einstein writes to noted Zionist Arthur Ruppin in full translated from German: ""To my dear Mr. Ruppin We are having unforgettable days in Palestine. With the sun shining in cheerful company. Your wife is standing next to me and looking at what I am writing about her. She is counting the days until you come back. Yours A. Einstein."" At the time Ruppin had been on an extended fundraising trip in the United States see: Wisconsin Jewish Chronicle December 15 1922. Above his note Hanna Ruppin also writes her husband translated: ""Dear Arthur A pleasant tour of the city. Included is a picture by Prof. Einstein. Warm greetings Hanna."" True to her word on the recto Einstein had drawn a diminutive self-portrait signed below together with a rendering of ""Frau Ruppin."" Above the drawings he added the words ""Jerusalem"" ""Heiligenschein"" or ""halo"" with an arrow pointing to the halo-like marks over his self-portrait's head. Einstein's depiction of himself as a rotund almost comical figure stands in contrast to the elegantly-dressed ""Frau Ruppin"" with her stylish hat shapely figure and umbrella. A newly minted celebrity following the reception of the 1921 Nobel Prize for physics Einstein was on his return to Europe following a six-month lecture tour that took him as far as Japan in late 1922. He returned to Europe via Sri Lanka and the Suez Canal stopping at Port Said on February 1 1923 for two weeks in Palestine. Einstein made the stop at the invitation of Arthur Ruppin 1876-1943 an early Zionist thinker and leader. Academically trained in Germany in economics and law Ruppin was awarded the Krupp prize in 1899 for his dissertation on Darwinism and industry. He joined the Zionist Organization in 1905 and acted as a land agent to purchase land in Palestine in order to facilitate the migration of European Jews. From 1933 to 1935 he headed the Jewish Agency which assisted German Jews fleeing Nazi persecution in settling in Palestine. At the time of Einstein's visit to Palestine Ruppin was on an extended fundraising tour in the United States Wisconsin Jewish Chronicle December 15 1922 p. 10. From Port Said Einstein boarded a train for Jerusalem where he was greeted not unlike a visiting head of state in light of his of recent scientific achievements as well as his support of the establishment of a Jewish state in Palestine. The first night Einstein was the guest of an aide to the British High Commissioner for the Palestinian Mandate and he spent the next two days informally touring the Old City as well as taking a trip to the Dead Sea via Jericho. February 5th marked the first day of his official tour organized by the Zionists. Writing in his travel diary he recorded translated: ""Tour of two Jewish colonial settlements west of Jerusalem belonging to the city. The construction is carried out by Jewish workers' cooperative in which the leaders are elected. The workers arrive without specialized knowledge or expertise and achieve excellence after a short time. The leaders are paid no more than the workers."" According to corresponding sources Einstein's first visit that morning was to the suburb of Beth Hakerem in the west of Jerusalem accompanied by Hanna Ruppin together with Hadassah Samuel and Solomon Ginzburg. see: Ha'aretz and Doar Hayom February 7 1923 and Kark and Oren-Nordheim 2001 p. 169. On the afternoon of February 7th Einstein delivered the inaugural lecture on the future sight of the Hebrew University on Mount Scopus an institution in which he was intimately involved . There he apologized for not being able to deliver his address in Hebrew and then proceeded to give a 90 minute talk in perfect French outlining his theory of relativity Einstein Collected Papers Volume 13 p. lxvi. After Jerusalem Einstein travelled to Tel Aviv where Mayor Meir Dizengoff bestowed him the honor of honorary citizenship upon which he remarked ""I have already had the privilege of receiving an honorary citizenship of the City of New York but I am tenfold happier to be a citizen of this beautiful Jewish town."" In his travel diary Einstein recorded his favorable impressions of the young Jewish settlement: ""The accomplishments of the Jews in just a few years in this city arouses the highest admiration� An incredibly active people our Jews."" Travel Diary February 8 1923. His tour continued with visits to Haifa and Tiberious and ending in Jerusalem before he departed via rail for Port Said the morning of February 14th. On February 16th he embarked on the R.M.S. Ormuz for Marseilles. From there he travelled to Spain delivering lectures in Barcelona and Madrid. Although Einstein would never again travel to Palestine he continued to support efforts to promote Jewish settlement and especially the Hebrew University. Upon the death of Israel's first President Chaim Weizmann Abba Eban the Israeli Ambassador to the United States formally offered him the post. Although deeply moved by the offer he did not believe himself qualified for such a position. New York Times Nov. 19 1952 p. 1 Although Einstein used a postcard for the Red Star Line Belgenland he did not sail aboard the ship as it had yet to make its maiden voyage April 1923. However Einstein's last voyage to Europe was aboard the Belgenland in 1933. Arriving in Antwerp he learned that Adolf Hitler had become Chancellor of Germany. Realizing that he could never reside in Germany again he left first for Great Britain and then the United States where he became a citizen in 1940. This letter is extremely rare. Letters written by Einstein during his only visit to Palestine are virtually unknown and no examples have appeared at auction for the past forty years. The Collected Papers of Albert Einstein record only two other pieces of manuscript apart from his travel diary written during this period: a February 11 1923 ALS to Chaim Weizmann written from Haifa location of original not presently known and an ALS February 14 1923 written to Arthur S. Eddington now part of the collections of the University of Cambridge. Although Einstein was known to accomplish drawings signed self-portraits are virtually unknown. We are aware of only three other examples none of which have ever sold at public auction nor are we aware of a private sale of the same. Faint horizontal crease with a tiny tear at left margin does not affect the drawings or Einstein's note on the verso minor rub spot below address line. About-fine condition. unknown
