Harvey Cushing Autograph Sold at Auction

Dr. Harvey Cushing dedicated his life to brain surgery and is remembered as one of the most influential neurosurgeons. He extensively studied brain tumors and was the first to describe Cushing’s disease, one of the causes of Cushing’s sydrome. In most cases Cushing’s disease is caused by a tumor of the pituitary gland, ultimately leading to increased cortisol in the body that causes a host of issues such as high blood pressure, high blood sugar and brittle bones.

Dr. Harvey Cushing was also a gifted writer and wrote a Pulitzer Prize-winning book on Dr. William Osler, one of the founding professors of Johns Hopkins Hospital. We sold an autographed copy of this book for $1,074. Please see below for details:
