Rare Sir Isaac Newton first edition ”The Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy” (first English version of “Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica”) in two volumes. London: Benjamin Motte, 1729. One of the most important works by the leading mind of the 18th century scientific revolution.

Volumes contain two folding letterpress tables and 47 folding engraved plates; the two frontispieces and pp. 385-393 and first 7pp. of index are replaced in facsimile, but hardly distinguishable from the original. The ”Laws of Moon’s Motion” usually found in Vol. II are here bound at end of Vol. I, and with errata for both volumes on verso of E4. Small stain to inner part of title in Vol. I, short tear to lower margin of G1, small section missing from lower margin of M3 and with lower corner cut away of A8 and C4 of ”Laws of Moon’s Motion” (no loss of text). Some marginal dampstaining and occasional soiling and spotting, overall in very good, clean condition with most edges untrimmed. Sold for $22,500.

Physicist’s Nobel Prize sells for $765,000 in online auction

In this November 2014 photo provided by Fermilab, Physics Nobel Prize winner Dr. Leon M. Lederman poses for a photo in Batavia, Ill. The 1988 Nobel Prize in Physics awarded to Dr. Leon Lederman has sold for $765,002 USD. The online auction went into overtime Thursday, May 28, 2015, until a final bid went unchallenged for half an hour. Nate D. Sanders Auctions spokesman Sam Heller says the final amount is the fourth-highest ever paid among the 10 Nobel Prizes that have been sold at auction. The 92-year-old has said he decided to sell the prize because it has just been sitting on a shelf. (Reidar Hahn, Fermilab via AP)
