CARREL, Alexis (1873-1944) and Charles A. LINDBERGH (1902-1974). The Culture of Organs. New York: Paul B. Hoeber, Inc., 1938.

8vo (232 x 155 mm). Numerous black and white illustrations of photographs and drawings. Publisher's black cloth, gilt-stamped spine (dampstaining on upper cover, minor wear). FIRST EDITION. Carrel received the 1912 Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine for his pioneering experimental work in vascular surgery, organ transplantation, and cell culture. This book is the result from his collaboration with the aviator Charles Lindbergh toward the goal of cultivating whole organs; it reprints Lindbergh's 1935 paper on the perfusion pump he developed with Carrel for this purpose.

Provenance: William Leslie MacVane, Jr. (1915-2010), assisted in the first open heart surgery performed in Maine, 1959 (bookplate).
