National Geographic magazine from September 1934, Volume LXVI, No. 3, 7 x 10, which contains an article entitled “Flying Around the North Atlantic,” signed in fountain pen on the first page of the article, “To Dr. Albert H. Ebeling from Charles Lindbergh, December 1934” and “Anne Morrow Lindbergh.” In fine condition, with contrast to the Charles signature against the text. Accompanied by the original envelope. Ebeling was a close associate of vascular researcher Alexis Carrel (1873-1944), recipient of the 1912 Nobel Prize in Medicine. In the 1930s, Lindbergh’s mechanical inclinations led to a collaboration with Carrel on a book titled The Culture of Organs, as well as on the development of a ‘perfusion pump,’ which allowed human organs to survive outside the body—a crucial advance in the development of organ transplants and open-heart surgery.
