smooth and clear, with the pen lightly pressed on the page.This fluid,
easy-to-read line has even been turned into a font. Beyond just his

signature, he often switched between Albert Einstein and just A.
Einstein, with the latter being more common.

brings more happiness than the pursuit of
success combined with constant
restlessness.” This unique piece of history
