Bible signed by Einstein sells for $68,500 in NYC

A Bible signed by Albert Einstein has sold for $68,500 at an auction in New York City.

The Bible was part of a fine books and manuscripts auction at Bonhams on Tuesday. The German-born, Nobel Prize-winning physicist and his wife signed it in 1932 and gave it to a US friend, Harriett Hamilton. The auction house says Einstein writes in the German inscription the Bible "is a great source of wisdom and consolation and should be read frequently." (AP)
