London: Nature, 1951. 8vo. 7pp. Original printed wrappers. Lightly age-darkened. FIRST EDITION, OFFPRINT ISSUE, SIGNED by Gosling on the front wrapper. This important paper is illustrated with electron microscope photographs of fibers of sodium thymonucleate (4 copies of two side-by-side prints). Wilkins' studies of sodium thymonucleate led him to Raymond Gosling, a graduate student working with outdated x-ray equipment. Despite the limitations of the technology, they were able to produce several landmark pictures of proteins in crystalline forms.
