After Hemingway's death in 1961, Herrera was appointed to represent his affairs in Cuba, including the deeding of the property and contents of ''Il Finca Vigia'' to the Cuban people ''as a place of opportunity for wider education and research, to be maintained in his memory.''

The candid photo is of two men on the veranda of Hemingway's Havana home, Finca La Vigia.Herrera was Hemingway's friend, personal secretary, and manager of Finca La Vigia, Hemingway's Cuban property. Herrera and Hemingway became good friends while sharing their mutual interests in hunting, fishing aboard the ?Pilar?, and drinking at their favorite bar, La Floridita, in Havana.They also attended bullfights together, and Herrera, an avid photographer, captured many photos and movies of all these activities. Hemingway called Herrera ?El Monstruo? (the Monster), and signed much of his correspondence to Herrera ?Mr. Papa?

After Hemingway's 1961 suicide, Herrera was appointed to represent Hemingway's affairs in Cuba, including the deeding of the property and contents of ?Finca La Vigia? to the Cuban people ?as a place of opportunity for wider education and research, to be maintained in his memory.?

The tide of the advance was dramatically turned with the Battle of the Marne.

Typesetting by Thomas Todd, the binding by Robert Burlen, designed and printed by William and Raquel Freguson for William Young's San Souci Press, June 1978. 138 pp. A pristine copy, as mint, both the book and protective box in excellent condition ONE OF ONLY THREE COPIES OF THE EARLIEST ISSUE OF THE FIRST EDITION. ONE COPY FOR THE PUBLISHER, THIS COPY FOR PRESENTATION BY THE PUBLISHER TO A CLOSE FRIEND AND ASSOCIATE, AND ONE COPY FOR SALE AT THE HIGHEST PRICE. What led to the eventual publication of this book is a story of significant interest and it is outlined in the long introduction by William and Dorothy Young. The typescript of the play was dated: Chicago 1920-1921 and would therefore qualify as Hemingway's first book, unpublished. Later research proved that at least Acts One and Two were completed and that the play had been copyrighted on June 4, 1921 thus proving that "what was apparently Hemingway's first book lay resting in some dusty corner of the copyright office in Washington." 'The carbon typescript of the book was authenticated by Professor Carlos Baker, the definitive Hemingway scholar. The only fragment remaining of the original manuscript descended from Leicester Hemingway to the publisher. In the Quinlan papers at Yale is a letter from Hemingway to Grace Quinlan, dated November 16, 1920, stating, in substance that he is writing a fifty-fifty collaboration with Musselman. Professor Baker also made note of a second letter from Musselman to Hemingway which states among other matters that they must get to work over the weekend to begin the thrird act of the play. The entire matter is discussed in the introduction to the book. At one time, the book was banned in California but remains as Hemingway's first authored book.' W. Young "Banned in California" This is the first printing from the original typescript and is thus the first time the book, apparently Hemingway's first, has been available to the public. The handsome typesetting is by Thomas Todd and the binding by Robert Burlen. Design and printing were carried out by William and Raquel Ferguson.

8vo; full complement of blank pages; printing department binding of green cloth, gilt lettered lettering-piece to spine (later addition), plain paper endpapers to front (paste-residue showing and offsetting), heavier, more finished salmon ones to rear, top edge gilt, others untrimmed, soiling and fading to boards and spine but sound and solid; hand-written letter loosely inserted (215 x 140 mm), folded horizontally twice, creased at corners, short split to right margin of each fold, otherwise very good. The key to this rare curiosity is the hand-written letter with the salutation to 'George' and signed by a A. R. Warnock or Warwick, dated 5th Feb' 1930; 'Here are some bound samples at last/ Please note the inclosed (sic), which is made with the cloth right side. I made up this cover because the polished surface of the reverse side shows every finger mark. I have also inclosed (sic) a piece of cloth showing part of it schallacked (sic), to prevent finger marking and at the same time giving a high polish.' Following this is list of prices according to the options quoted. This was produced at time when Hemingway, at the age of 30, was being lauded for this milestone novel. First published on September 27th the previous year, both as a trade and limited edition, it was quickly reprinted 'twice in September, once in October and three times in November 1929. By February 14th, 1930, sales stood at 79,251'; hence the reason for the publisher taking such pains to capitalise on the success and ensure the reprints did not disappoint aesthetically.

No Binding. Zustand: Very Good. Ernest Hemingway made his first trip to Africa in the winter of 1933/1934. He went big game hunting in Kenya and Tanzania. He was in his mid-30s at the time, successfully published (The Sun Also Rises and A Farewell to Arms had made him a celebrity), and happily (?) married. He fell in love with the land and spent the rest of his life writing about it and revisiting it. By happy confluence, his African excursions burnished his professional persona. Not only was he a literary superstar but he was a rugged outdoorsman in the classic American mold of Teddy Roosevelt and Jim Bridger. When he returned to the United States in April of 1934, he was aboard an ocean liner with Katherine Hepburm (a rising star who had just played a memorable Jo Marsh in Little Women) and Marlene Dietrich, established in film on both sides of the Atlantic. Yet it was Hemingway who was photographed for the newspapers when their ship docked in NY Harbor. He spoke to the New York Times on April 3, 1934 and said my interest now is Africa, and all I am here for is the make enough money to return to East Africa. WIthin a week or two he had headed home to Key West to begin writing (and fishing and drinking). He published Green Hills of Africa in 1935 and the great short story The Snows of Kilimanjaro in 1936. The first (Hemingway s version of non-fiction) of these is about the safari trip. The latter (Hemingway s version of fiction) is about a great writer who loves to hunt who believes his life was ruined by marrying rich and getting soft and thereby losing his hungry edge. The inspiration for these two celebrated works have been mined many times over in Hemingway biographies. There is a clear and undisputed connection between the 1933/34 safari with the content of Green Hills. Snows has a more intriguing story behind it. A dozen years after its publication, Hemingway wrote about the inspiration in a (private) letter to his good friend Buck Lanham in which he tells him that immediately upon his return from Africa he was invited to tea by a rich woman who offered to finance his return to Africa, provided she could join him. He didn't name the woman. This tantalizing anecdote has attracted the notice of several biographers. Paul Hendrickson, author of Hemingway s Boat: Everything He Loved in Life, and Lost, speculated that the unnamed woman was Helen Hay Whitney. She was, in 1934, fabulously wealthy, a patron of the arts, herself a writer, and many years widowed. Hendrickson writes that it is entirely plausible that Whitney would have seen the article in the Times and invited Hemingway to tea before he hopped a train to Florida. There is some interesting circumstantial evidence. The Whitney-character in Snows has grown children, as Whitney did. Like Whitney she raised racehorses. In some drafts of Snows, the character is even called Helen. Unfortunately, no connection or correspondence had ever been discovered between Hemingway and Whitney when Hendrickson wrote his book in 2012. We wrote to Hendrickson in 2023 to ask him if anything had come to light in the ensuing decade, and he said that he was not aware that anything had. We are excited to present a connection. Original black and white photograph showing a lion standing over the body of a (presumably) dead zebra. Endless grasslands extend to the horizon beyond. At the top left, Hemingway has written To H.H.W. He has made an X over the heart of the lion, just behind the shoulder of the front leg. At the bottom right, he has written X marks the spot, and signed Ernest Hemingway . The word Hemingway in the signature is a bit thin, unfortunately, but it is unmistakeable. The photograph measures 11.5 x 8.75 inches. It is faded. On the back side, the number 2511 is written an circled. The word black is written in pencil. And there is a notation of measurement 9 ¾ x 11 ⅝ R - 31196 also in pencil. Please email with questions. Signed by Author(s).

Signed vintage photograph, shows an unidentified man on horseback, 8 x 10 inch, signed and inscribed by Ernest Hemingway in blue ballpoint ink "My old friend Bill Bridge*. - I sold old Baldy and hung up my saddle, and then I bid farewell to the god-damn cattle - Best always, - Ernest Hemingway" - on the verso an autograph rhyme signed by Hemingway to Bill, mostly based on an old cowboy song `The Old Christholm Trail`and later bawdy versions of the same, attractively mounted (removable) for fine display with a photograph of Ernest Hemingway on a safari (altogether 16,5 x 11,75 inch), with mild creases and bumped corner tips - in fine condition.* It seems likely that Bill Budge was a hunting friend of Hemingway.

Hardcover. Zustand: Good. 2nd Printing. The book is signed by Ernest Hemingway in the upper right corner of the front free endpaper and is, in all likelihood, from the personal library of Hemingway. Hemingway had worked for Ford on the staff of the Transatlantic Review in 1924, the year before this book was published. It was purchased (by Hemingway?) from the iconic Holliday Bookstore (note the label on the rear pastedown endpaper). Provenance: I purchased the book 25 years ago from the estate of a Jacksonville, Florida book collector, and it has been in my personal collection since then. The book is a second printing in about good condition: there is some waviness of pages--perhaps damaged when Hemingway was "deaccessioning" it from his Key West home when he was at the apogee of his personal feud with Ford?

Both a commercial and critical success, which later became an acclaimed film. No dustjacket. Very good condition with a nice bold inscription and signature.

First edition, early printing (November 1929) of this early Hemingway classic, which established him among the American masters. Octavo, original black cloth. Presentation copy, inscribed by the author on the front free endpaper, "To W. Ghow wishing him all good luck Ernest Hemingway." In very good condition. Uncommon signed and inscribed. Written when Ernest Hemingway was thirty years old and lauded as the best American novel to emerge from World War I, A Farewell to Arms is the unforgettable story of an American ambulance driver on the Italian front and his passion for a beautiful English nurse. Set against the looming horrors of the battlefield weary, demoralized men marching in the rain during the German attack on Caporetto; the profound struggle between loyalty and desertion this gripping, semiautobiographical work captures the harsh realities of war and the pain of lovers caught in its inexorable sweep. Ernest Hemingway famously said that he rewrote the ending to A Farewell to Arms thirty-nine times to get the words right. It is the basis for the 1932 film bearing the same name directed by Frank Borzage and starring Gary Cooper, Helen Hayes, and Adolphe Menjou.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. First edition. Foxing on the foredge and first and last few pages, and a little scattered foxing throughout the text, thus very good in price-clipped near fine dust jacket. Vignettes inspired by the author's profound nostalgia for the halcyon days of his early career while living in Europe, and particularly Paris with his first wife Hadley Richardson. This copy is Signed on the title page by Hadley using her name from her second, and final, marriage to noted journalist Paul Mowrer: "Hadley R. Mowrer." After their divorce, when Hemingway left Hadley for Pauline Pfeiffer, Hadley assiduously avoided connections to her past with Hemingway. This is a profoundly nostalgic object indicative of Hemingway's heyday. We originally purchased this copy in the 1980s from the person who convinced Hadley to sign the book, sold it into a distinguished private collection, and have just recently reacquired it. We've never seen another copy of this book signed by Hadley either before or since, and think it is likely unique. Further detailed provenance on request.
