Never before seen? Somebody had to see the stuff! I always laugh at that expression because it makes absolutely no sense at all. :|\\

Maybe "Never before made public" would have been better, but it is possible that they preserved the documents without looking into them.
The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, which owns the German Jewish physicist's papers, is pulling never-before seen items from its climate-controlled safe, photographing them in high resolution and posting them on the Internet, offering the public a nuanced and fuller portrait of the man behind the scientific genius.

Never before seen? Somebody had to see the stuff! I always laugh at that expression because it makes absolutely no sense at all. :|\\I hear you on this. Everytime I hear the phrase, for some reason I think of Geraldo Rivera opening up Al Capone's secret vault. :O:
In any case, I look forward to seeing these items as Einstein has always intrigued me.
