THE FIRST ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE DISCOVERY OF THE STRUCTURE OF DNA which revolutionised biochemistry and the life sciences. ‘Molecular Structure of Nucleic Acids’ and ‘Genetical Implications of the Structure of Deoxyribonucleic Acid’ were published in Nature, January-June 1953, volume 171, pp 1168, this copy bound in brown pebbled cloth, a near fine copy.

‘Molecular Structure of Nucleic Acids’ occupies pages 737-740 of this volume and also features the first published double helix sketch of DNA: almost coyly, Watson and Crick suggest that ‘This structure has novel features which are of considerable biological importance. Their ‘Genetical Implications of the Structure of Deoxyribonucleic Acid’ follows at pp 964-967. ($5000)
