4 pp; 3 pp. Small closed tears or chipping along edges of pages. Ink stamp "Catalogued" on the first page of each offprint. Pages yellowed. Good. First Edition. The first paper has the ink stamp of "Franklin Paine Mall" on the first page. Peyton Rous was awarded one-half of the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1966 "for his discovery of tumour-inducing viruses." These two papers were published in the year following the publication of Rous's initial paper on this subject, "A Sarcoma of the Fowl Transmissible by an Agent Separable from the Tumor Cells", which is Garrison-Morton 2637: "Original description of the chicken sarcoma (Rous sarcoma). More than 50 years later (1966) Rous shared the Nobel Prize with Charles Huggins for work on cancer. Rous demonstrated that sarcomatous tumors in hens could be transmitted to normal hens by the injection of cell-free filtrates (virus) of the original tumor. The Rous Sarcoma Virus [RSV] was the first oncovirus discovered.".
