German physical chemist who provided the first chemical evidence of nuclear fission. Hitler, fortunately, did not grasp the destructive potential of this discovery - there is some evidence that Hahn kept him deliberately in the dark - and Hahn spent the war years doing small experiments on the industrial use of atomic energy. Won the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1944. Vintage matte-finish 2.5 x 4 photo, signed in the lower border in fountain pen. In fine condition. RRAuction COA.
