First Illustrated Edition

HEMINGWAY, Ernest : THE OLD MAN AND THE SEA

Charles Scribner's Sons, New York City, 1952

Bound in light blue cloth, with Hemingway's signature embossed on the lower front board, and silver lettering to spine. 1952 at bottom of the title page. Copyright page has the Scribner's Press seal, but lacks the "A", thus first edition, but not first printing. There is a former owner's ink gift inscription, dated 1952, on the front free endpaper, and a few faint blemishes to the top right of the front board, and to the top left of the rear board. Otherwise, the book is in near fine condition. The first state dust jacket has not been price-clipped, and shows a price of $3.00. The sepia-toned photo of Hemingway is on the back panel and there is no mention of the Nobel Prize in the blurb. The spine is a bit darkened, with just a trace of wear & chipping to the spine ends and folds. The front panel is exceptionally vivid - the best we have seen on any copy of this jacket. Overall, the jacket is in very good, to near fine, condition., 8vo, pp. 140.
