Harvey Cushing Signed Biography
"WINNERS WILL BE NOTIFIED AFTER THE AUCTION ENDS BY THE AUCTIONEER ONCE ALL BIDS HAVE BEEN PROCESSED TO DETERMINE THE WINNER FOR EACH LOT."
Impressive set of two books signed by Dr. Harvey Cushing, the ''Father of Modern Neurosurgery.'' Cushing signs ''The Life of Sir William Osler,'' his Pulitzer Prize biography about his mentor, and inscribes it to Dr. Fred Ellsworth Clow, who pioneered the first studies on anorexia in the 1930's. Signed on the front free endpaper, ''Inscribed for Dr. Fred Ellsworth Clow with the regards of Harvey Cushing / New Haven Oct. 25 1938''. Oxford University Press: Oxford: 1925, third impression. Clow's bookplates to pastedowns. Overall very good.
