Item description from seller

1 leaf, xvi, 226 pp; illus. Original cloth. Swedish postage stamp honoring Crick, Watson, and Wilkins for the Nobel Prize in 1962 is pasted to title page. Wilkins's inscription is partly on the stamp. Very Good, in dust jacket. Third Impression of British Edition. The following pages are signed or annotated: 1. Title page: SIGNED BY NOBEL LAUREATES JAMES D. WATSON, FRANCIS CRICK, MAURICE WILKINS ("with best wishes/ Maurice Wilkins/ April 2003"), AND BY RAYMOND GOSLING. 2. p. 214: SIGNED BY FRANCIS CRICK AND JAMES D. WATSON UNDER THE PHOTOGRAPH SHOWING THEM STANDING BY THEIR DNA MODEL (opposite p. 214). 3. p. 18 SIGNED BY MAURICE WILKINS UNDER HIS PHOTOGRAPH (opposite p. 18). 4. Annotated by Raymond G. Gosling about Rosalind Franklin (under her photograph opposite p. 70): "She had wonderfully lustrous dark eyes. I found her very attractive, as did most everyone who worked with her. She had a strong personality and did not suffer fools gladly. Her powers of concentration were quite fierce and she could get done in a day what other people might have taken several to achieve. Raymond Gosling Sept. 2003". 5. Annotated by Raymond G. Gosling about X-ray photograph of crystalline DNA in the A form (under photograph opposite p. 72): "The pattern that 'kick started' the whole story. A multifibre (about 35) specimen made by Wilkins & myself and taken on a conventional Rayniax tube in the basement of King s College London. This pattern was one shewn by Maurice at the Naples meeting. The A form was obtained serendipitously by my regulating the Hydrogen into the camera by bubbling thru' water--hence ~92% RH. Raymond Gosling. Sept. 2003." 6. Annotated by Raymond G. Gosling about X-ray photograph of DNA in the B form, taken by Rosalind Franklin late in 1952 (under photograph opposite p. 169): "As Rosalind's assistant I actually 'took' this X-ray pattern. Since we were working closely together the overall strategy was Rosalind's. Therefore the importance attributed to some--as to who 'took' the photograph--is inappropriate. R G Gosling Sept. 2003." NOTE: I have included photos of everything signed or annotated, except for Maurice Wilkins's signature under his photo (opposite p. 18). I have a photo of that signature, too.
