CHRISTIAAN BARNARD
Performed the world's first successful heart transplant.
Illustration signed: "Chris Barnard", 8½x11. Printed drawing of the
heart. Barnard (1922-2001) performed the world's first heart transplant at
Groote Schuur Hospital in Cape Town on December 3, 1967. The patient,
53-year-old dentist Louis Washkansky, lived 18 days. After Washkansky died,
Barnard and his team persevered with their innovative surgical procedure. His
second transplant patient, Philip Blaiberg, lived for 18 months after the
operation. Barnard's longest-surviving patient, Dirk van Zyl, lived with an
implanted heart for 23 years before dying in 1996 of diabetes unrelated to his
heart condition. Creased at corners. Stray ink marks at lower margin (does not
affect signature). Fine condition.
