"Professor Albert Einstein is gone" - "HaBoker" newspaper announcing the passing of Albert Einstein


Newspaper "HaBoker" dated April 19, 1955 announcing the death of Albert Einstein on the very day, with the headline "Professor Einstein is gone", and a photo of Einstein.


"Prof. Albert Einstein the great man of philosophy and science, who gave the world the key to the secrets of atomic energy, breathed his last today at the hospital in Princeton, New Jersey, USA, at the age of 76". The main article on the title page about Einstein's memory states that Einstein dedicated his life to science, left his body and brain for medical research, and that 15 hours after his death his body was cremated while the main organs and brain were dissected for medical research as per Einstein's request. It further notes that all major Jewish organizations in the US are mourning Einstein's death, and the news of his passing appears in all papers. Among other things appears a statement by the Prime minister of Israel Ben-Gurion “The greatest man of our generation and many generations has departed, the great man of science who emerged from the Jewish people". Ben-Gurion also revealed that Einstein had planned to appear in an American TV show on Independence Day with the Israeli ambassador to the Washington to speak about the importance of the State of Israel's for the entire world. Include also is an article on Einstein's path to Zionism, as he declared a week before his death "I am full of excitement for Israel and the ingathering of exiles”, and more.
