1955ref. 33869New York: The Ram Press 1955 1955. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Dust Jacket Included. First Edition. Hardcover. For the Einstein enthusiast. First Edition. Limited to 3000 Copies in the original glassine outer wrapper. 8vo. 40 pp. With black and white photographs of Albert Einstein and Frank Back. A fine copy in handmade decorative paper covered boards printed glossy paper label to the upper cover. The volume dedicated to Albert Einstein is the only book written by Dr. Frank Back "The Father of the Zoom Lens" and creator of the first widely used zoom lenses for film and television. Dr. Back a close friend of Albert Einstein was persuaded by Einstein to take the trip commemorated in this beautifully produced volume in order to capture the total eclipse of the sun which occurred on June 20 1955. Dr. Back intended to provide conclusive evidence for Einstein's theory of relativity by calculating the optical distortion if any of starlight caused by the sun's gravity. In 1919 Einstein's general relativity principles were supported by observations of a solar eclipse. The two scientists conferred on the project for over a year. Armed with a special Zoomar designed and built wide-angle solar-eclipse spectrograph Dr. Back was off to the Philippine Islands to board a military jet and chase the eclipse. Einstein however died while Back was on his way to Manila. Unable to report the excursion to his friend Dr. Back dedicated this book to his memory. In a TBCL dark green cloth slipcase. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. The Ram Press, (1955) hardcover
1950ref. 32820550This photograph shows a reunion of friends. The Sternbergers and Einstein had known one other in Europe and met again in Princeton. Ilse was Sternberger's wife collaborator and perennial foil. She was a constant source of warmth during sometimes-contentious sittings. She also helped document their life publishing several articles on Sternberger's work and their sessions with famous sitters after his death. Gelatin silver print 20 x 30 in. Archivally framed. Estate Edition a limited edition of 10 copies embossed and numbered. $2500 unframed; framed: $3000
1950ref. 32820558In this portrait Sternberger shows Einstein dressed informally. Einstein was keenly aware of his public image and often attempted to show a cheerful visage. The common backgrounds of the two men helped the photographer to put Einstein in a relaxed state and to capture him in a more vulnerable pose. Marcel Sternberger and Albert Einstein had known each other in Europe long before the two met again in Princeton New Jersey for this session. Before the men left Europe Einstein had furnished the preface to a book written by Sternberger. After a warm welcome and lemonade the men settled in for the sitting. They discussed various topics including World War II and the state of American education. Although some photographs from the session show Einstein with a telltale twinkle in his eye here the great scientist appears fatigued. The seriousness of their conversation seems to have worn him down. Still the conversation had its moments of levity. At one moment Sternberger asked Einstein to remove his suspenders. Einstein replied "I am going to lose my trousers! I can't." Einstein instead put on one of his trademark sweatshirts. Here modern science's greatest mind is forever immortalized as only Sternberger could. He has found a depth of personality exceeding photographs produced without regard to the sitter's inner psychological state. Gelatin silver print 16 x 20 in. Archivally framed. Estate Edition a limited edition of 20 copies embossed and numbered. $1250 unframed; framed: $1650

1938ref. 9498New Jersey: Jacobi Studio 1938. Very Good. 5 X 7 Inches. SCARCE original headshot of Albert Einstein by Lotte Jacobi circa 1938. This iconic photograph of Einstein features him wearing his leather coat inside his Princeton New Jersey home. Scarce cropped photograph of Einstein's face with Jacobi Studio text in lower border. "Albert Einstein: A Photographic Study By Lotte Jacobi - Jacobi Studio 46 West 52nd Street New York 19 NY." Lotte Jacobi took this photograph of the theoretical physicist Albert Einstein at his home in Princeton New Jersey at the time he was a professor at the university. Both Jewish the two had been family friends a decade earlier in Germany. Einstein had renounced his German citizenship for political reasons after leaving Nazi Germany in 1933 and Jacobi had been forced to emigrate to the United States from Nazi Germany after she too renounced her German citizenship in 1935. Jacobi and Einstein collaborated on the crafting of his media image in a series of late-1930s Princeton portraits commissioned by Life magazine. Einstein agreed to sit for the photo session only if Lotte Jacobi was assigned to photograph him. The image of Einstein in a leather jacket is unusual in that it catches him in a less-guarded less-constructed moment than the others and offers the viewer a glimpse of the world-famous theoretical physicist as an individual rather than as a stereotyped professor. Rubbing and light wear at corners. A SCARCE advertising piece from the Jacobi Studio. Jacobi Studio unknown
