HEMINGWAY, Ernest. Three Stories and Ten Poems . Paris: Contact Publishing Co., 1923.
HEMINGWAY, Ernest. Three Stories and Ten Poems . Paris: Contact Publishing Co., 1923. 12 o . Original printed gray-blue wrappers, uncut (spine slightly darkened, some minor soiling); blue morocco folding case. Provenance : B.F. Hart (autograph letter signed by Hemingway tipped-in). FIRST EDITION, one of 300 copies. Though Three Stories and Ten Poems sold miserably, Hemingway's efforts did yield one award-winning short story: "My Old Man," which was included in The Best Short Stories of 1923 , edited by Edward J. O'Brien. Hemingway had originally showed O'Brien his "soulful" tale of a boy's disillusionment with his crooked jockey-father "as a curiosity, as you might...pick up your booted foot and make some joke about it if it had been amputated after a crash." O'Brien's reaction was quite the opposite; he found the work exceptional enough to include among the best of the year. O'Brien also asked permission to dedicate the upcoming anthology to Hemingway, who agreed, adding: "And to show you how much I appreciate it I will make a very solemn vow to you and God never to think about any readers but you and God when writing stories all the rest of my life" ( Selected Letters , ed. Carlos Baker, p. 103). Hanneman A1a. [ Tipped-in :] Autograph letter signed by Hemingway, with the accompanying envelope, to B.F. Hart, 6 June [n.d.], in which Hemingway kindly agrees to sign a copy of his book if Hart would send it to the L-T Ranch in Montana.
