In den Warenkorb609 x 456 mm. Morris Jeppson's hand-annotated blueprint of the "Little Boy" atomic bomb. Jeppson designates parts of the bomb and writes, in part: "During the flight I removed 3 green electrical plugs and replaced them with red coded plugs. This allowed a detonation voltage to go from fusing to the explosive that fired the proje…ctile of U235 into the target of U235 when the bomb reached about 1500 feet above Hiroshima". - Signed "Morris Jeppson / Weapon Test Officer / Enola Gay Mission / HIROSHIMA 6 Aug. 1945". - Jeppson served as assistant weaponeer on the Enola Gay, which dropped the first atomic bomb on the city of Hiroshima, Japan on 6 August 1945.

In den WarenkorbJeppson, Morris, annotated "Little Boy" atomic bomb diagram, signed in reference to the Hiroshima mission of August 6, 1945, documents firsthand technical interpretation of the first nuclear weapon used in war. The sheet holds historical value for the study of the Manhattan Project, atomic weapons deployment, and the operational… knowledge carried by members of the Enola Gay crew. Jeppson's role as Weapons Test Officer gives the document particular importance, since the annotations do not merely identify the bomb after the fact but explain its mechanism from the perspective of a participant directly involved in its wartime use. Jeppson, Morris. Annotated diagram of "Little Boy." 1 page. Black and white printed diagram with extensive handwritten notations and signature. The diagram shows the internal arrangement of the bomb's major components, with Jeppson adding arrows and manuscript labels identifying the "target U235," the "projectile 235," the "electric detonator," the "gun barrel," and "one of 4 radar antennas." He further explains the bomb's operation in functional terms, noting where the uranium projectile would strike and that it "Becomes critical mass with projectile." Signed at the bottom, "Morris Jeppson / Weapon Test Officer / Enola Gay Mission / HIROSHIMA 6 Aug. 1945." The notations transform the printed diagram into a participant-marked technical document linking design, terminology, and mission-specific memory. The document is tied directly to the bombing of Hiroshima, the event that introduced nuclear warfare and altered the political and military history of the twentieth century. Its interpretive value lies in the combination of technical content and eyewitness association: the sheet preserves not only a schematic of the bomb itself but also the language used by a mission participant to explain how the weapon functioned. That combination makes it useful for examining how atomic technology was understood by military personnel at the point where scientific development and combat deployment converged. Minor handling wear; otherwise well-preserved with clear manuscript annotations and signature. Overall very good condition. Signed.

In den WarenkorbJeppson, Morris. Inscribed photograph of the Hiroshima Atomic Dome following the atomic bombing, provides a quantified assessment of destruction written by the weapons officer responsible for arming the bomb aboard the Enola Gay on August 6, 1945. As the individual who physically armed the device prior to release, Morris Jeppson… links technical execution of the mission with retrospective evaluation of its effects. His inscription records measured estimates of blast radius, fire spread, and infrastructure damage, contributing to the historical record of how participants in the bombing articulated its scale and consequences in numerical terms. Jeppson, Morris. Hiroshima Atomic Dome photograph. United States, post-1945. Black-and-white photograph measuring approximately 9 x 8.5 inches, inscribed in ink by Morris Jeppson. The inscription reads: "The radius of destruction of Hiroshima was about 1.6 km, with resulting fires across 11.4 square km. Infrastructure damage was estimated at 90% of Hiroshima's buildings either damaged or completely destroyed. Morris Jeppson - Weapon Test Officer - Enola Gay Mission - Hiroshima 6 Aug. 1945." The image depicts the Atomic Dome, one of the few surviving structures near the hypocenter, paired with Jeppson's statistical summary of destruction, integrating visual evidence with numerical interpretation. The Hiroshima bombing introduced a new scale of urban destruction defined by nuclear technology, with immediate and long-term consequences for civilian populations and infrastructure. Jeppson's inscription reflects how participants in the mission communicated its impact through measurable data, aligning with postwar efforts to document and understand the physical effects of atomic weapons. The combination of a landmark image of the Atomic Dome with a participant-authored damage assessment offers a primary source for the study of nuclear warfare, urban devastation, and the translation of technological force into quantifiable outcomes. Light handling wear; photograph remains clean with strong, legible inscription. Overall very good. Signed.

In den WarenkorbJeppson, Morris. Hand-annotated diagram of the "Little Boy" atomic bomb, 1945, provides a direct technical interpretation of the weapon used in the bombing of Hiroshima by a participant who bridged both its development and deployment. As weapons officer aboard the Enola Gay and a scientist present at Los Alamos Laboratory, Jepps…on occupied a rare dual role linking the Manhattan Project's design phase with the operational execution of nuclear warfare. His annotations explain the internal structure and function of the uranium gun-type bomb, offering a contemporaneous explanation of how critical mass was achieved and how the weapon was triggered. The document situates technical knowledge of nuclear fission within the lived experience of those responsible for its first use in warfare during World War II. Jeppson, Morris. "Little Boy" atomic bomb diagram. United States, 1945. One-page black-and-white printed diagram with extensive handwritten annotations and arrows in ink, signed at lower margin "Morris Jeppson / Weapon Test Officer / Enola Gay Mission / HIROSHIMA 6 Aug. 1945." The annotations identify and explain key components, including "target U235," "projectile 235," and the process by which the bomb "Becomes critical mass with projectile," along with labeled elements such as the "electric detonator," "gun barrel," and "one of 4 radar antennas." The markings function as a technical overlay to the printed schematic, clarifying both structure and mechanism from the perspective of the officer responsible for in-flight arming and monitoring of the device. The atomic bombing of Hiroshima marked the first combat use of nuclear weapons and introduced a new phase of warfare defined by unprecedented destructive capacity and strategic implications. Jeppson's role in both the scientific and operational dimensions of the mission positions this document within the immediate transmission of specialized knowledge from laboratory to battlefield. His annotations provide insight into how participants understood and communicated the bomb's function, contributing to the historical record of nuclear science, military technology, and the transformation of warfare at the end of World War II. Light handling wear; diagram remains clear with strong, legible annotations and signature. Overall very good. Signed.
