Tim Lincoln

Nature, 1998, vol. 395, issue 6704, 747-747

Abstract: At sales in London (11 November) and New York (29 October), some significant scientific items will be on offer. Lots at the London event include works of art by renowned natural history illustrators of the past, as well as a signed photograph of Charles Darwin. The New York auction is of the only remaining copy, dating to the tenth century, of the text on which accounts of Archimedes' ideas are based.
