life.com — Albert Einstein was 76 when he died. His funeral and cremation were intensely private affairs, and only one photographer managed to capture the events of that extraordinary day: LIFE magazine's Ralph Morse. But aside from one now-famous image (thumbnail), the pictures Morse took that day were never published until now.

Hello, I have a FACSIMILE of EINSTEINS PASSPORT. This facsimile was issued in a very limited amount and never ever for sale but only given to politicans or celebreties in Switzerland. As Iam a passport collector I got one copy some years ago. FACSIMILE issued by the National Museum in Bern which bought EINSTEINS ORIGINAL SWISS PASSPORT few years ago for a sum of 90.000 USD. The passport is now displayed there. The FACSIMILE is a 1:1 copy and just looks like the original. Own a piece of history...Please make your offer. ONLY 1 piece available. Pictures on request.

Yeah but imagine if they put that brain into a computer or something, he could think about science all day and we'd have colonies out in the stars so much sooner!!!/s

Wow, he was cremated? That's surprising.

No, we hate people who go around saying "-Insert phrase here- buried!"It's annoying. You voice your bury by actually burying the person.
