16154HEMINGWAY Ernest. The Old Man and the Sea advance galley proofs preceding the first printing in Life Magazine of one of Hemingway's greatest works. Hemingway was awarded the 1954 Nobel Prize in Literature on the strength of The Old Man and the Sea being cited "for his mastery of the art of narrative most recently demonstrated in The Old Man and the Sea and for the influence that he has exerted on contemporary style".Stamped "Advance Galley Proofs" on cover page and "Advance Galley Proofs For Your Personal Reading Only LIFE Publication Date Sept 1" above first page of text. Although it is believed that as many as 500 galley proofs were issued few copies of this fragile item have survived and complete sets are scarce. A difficult Hemingway item to find and much scarcer than the first edition which had a print run of 50000 copies and came out also in 1952. Chicago: Time Inc. 1952. 17 long about 32 inches long galley sheets with fold at center Condition is fair only with toning and brittle with many marginal chips as usual given the poor quality of the original paper. .In May 1953 the novel received the Pulitzer Prize9 and was specifically cited when in 1954 he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature which he dedicated to the Cuban people.1011 The success of The Old Man and the Sea made Hemingway an international celebrity. unknown books

While in Spain covering the Spanish Civil War for the North American Newspaper Alliance Hemingway agreed to take part in the funding of a to raise money for the Loyalist Republican cause in the war in collaboration with several other literary figures including John Dos Passos Lillian Hellman Archibald MacLeish and. Dorothy Parker. The resulting film The Spanish Earth was directed by Joris Ivens based upon commentary by Hemingway and Dos Passos and narrated by Orson Welles. Cleveland Heights High School student Jasper Wood acquired the rights to publish 1000 copies of Hemingway's commentary for the film in 1938. Upon seeing the first issue of the book from the press Hemingway wired Wood objecting to Wood's introduction because it gave him credit for the film which he felt belonged to Ivens and photographer John Ferno. He also objected to the large banner of the anarchist group F.A.I. Federacion Anarquista Iberica on the endpapers. A second issue was then bound with plain tan endpapers and a statement from Wood on the rear pastedown referring to Hemingway's objections and noting: "Hemingway insisted that his share of the profits for this text be paid directly to Almuth Heulbrun the widow of Dr. Werner Heilbrun who was killed in action in Spain."
