TLS, one page, 8.5 x 11, The Salk Institute letterhead, May 14, 1997. Letter to Barbara Marinacci, editor of the book entitled Linus Pauling in His Own Words. In full: “About Krafft’s ideas. The idea that a regularly repeating backbone is likely to take up a helical configuration is a very obvious one, and was known well before Pauling suggested the a-helix. His other ideas are largely incorrect. My advice would be not to waste time on him.” In fine condition. RR Auction COA.
