197028889Pittsburgh:: University of Pittsburgh Press 1970. First Printing of the First US Edition. A Near Fine copy with previous owner name on flyleaf in Very Good plus dust jacket with a small chip to the front panel. Facsimile style sheet tipped in at rear. It is generally acknowledged that Ernest Hemingway's short stint as a reporter for the Kansas City Star was an important apprenticeship to his career as a creative writer. In his articles for the Kansas City Star Hemingway wrote of a gun battle outside a house used by drug addicts of the victims of violence that were treated at the city’s General Hospital and of the violence accompanying the laundry workers’ strike. He also did some serious investigative journalism into corruption on the hospital’s Health Board and criticised the city for its mishandling of the smallpox outbreak that was happening at the time.This slender volume is a collection of eleven Kansas City Star stories that editor Matthew Bruccoli has been able to attribute to Hemingway.

150070Rare original black and white photograph of legendary American writer Ernest Hemingway. Black and white matte photograph of Hemingway at his peak wearing Western garb and leaning on a car. Inscribed by Ernest Hemingway in black ballpoint at the bottom margin below the image "For Taylor Williams with affection and admiration from his friend Ernest Hemingway Sun Valley 1939 - 1940." The recipient was Hemingway's great friend Taylor “Beartracks†Williams the well-known Sun Valley hunting and fishing guide. Hemingway’s friendship with Williams dated back to their meeting in Idaho in the late 1930s after which Hemingway frequently returned to Ketchum before eventually settling there. The spring of 1953 also marked a peak moment in Hemingway’s career and personal life: he had recently written The Old Man and the Sea and received the Pulitzer Prize and this period preceded the airplane accidents of 1954 and his later forced departure from Cuba during the Castro regime—events that would profoundly affect his final years and contribute to his death in 1961. In fine condition. Triple matted and framed. The photograph measures 6.5 inches by 9.5 inches. The entire piece measures 16.75 inches by 13.5 inches. Ernest Hemingway 1899–1961 was one of the most influential American writers of the 20th century whose concise prose style and exploration of universal themes reshaped modern literature. Known for his works such as The Old Man and the Sea A Farewell to Arms and For Whom the Bell Tolls Hemingway developed a narrative voice that captured the complexities of human struggle and resilience with stark simplicity. His experiences as a journalist and participant in both World Wars deeply informed his writing lending authenticity to his depictions of courage loss and alienation. While his personal life marked by adventure and tragedy often overshadowed his literary contributions his stylistic innovations and engagement with existential themes solidified his status as a transformative figure in American letters. By pushing the boundaries of narrative form and emphasizing the power of understatement Hemingway left an enduring legacy on both literature and the cultural understanding of the human condition. unknown

None of us looks as bad as we might have and that's about all we can expect from photographs these days I guess. You haven't missed anything super in the fishing here. Papa and I have been out four times I think since you left and one day when there was only very patchy current we spotted one in the morning put the bait over him two or three times he fooling around teasing us and Papa finally hooked him and brought him in. That afternoon a little one - 35-40 lbs. took a bait and I got him in with no suffering or nonsense such as I was displaying while you were here. I think the swimming helps ton up the muscles - have done my full half-mile in the pool every day now for a long time. Recently the weather has improved slightly - it waits until afternoon to rain. Otherwise no news - very quiet here and we miss you every single day and the Little House empty looks forlorn and missing you too. Not having your precise address on the Keys I'm sending this to S.V. where you'll have it when you arrive. Dearest Taylor - very much love and affections and good wishes from both of us - Mary. Papa reading in his chair says me too." In fine condition with mail folds. The piece measures 5.75 inches by 7.75 inches.
