CURIE, MARIE. 1867-1934. Document signed ("M. Curie"), partially printed together with manuscript, 1 p, c. 307 x 213 mm, dated Paris, July 20, 1931. "Certificat no. 1486. Dosage de Radium par le Rayonnement γ," from the Institut du Radium, Laboratoire Curie. Minor soiling.
Marie Curie here signs this receipt for radium as "Directeur du Laboratoire" for 54,69 mg of elemental radium. Curie also was a victim of radiation exposure from carrying test tubes in her pockets. This led to her eventually developing and dying from aplastic anemia.
