Hemingway, Ernest : The Snows Of Kilimanjaro in Esquire Magazine, First Appearance

Esquire, Inc., Chicago, 1936

Folio. Entire issue, August, 1936, in original, colorful, pictorial wraps, moderate general wear, occasional creases noted around edges, rear wrap a bit soiled, a single leaf, pages 29/30, has been removed, NOT affecting the Hemingway piece, which is complete, some internal upper page edges are a bit yellowed. Overall a relatively clean, bright copy. The first appearance of this masterful story of love and loss under the shadows of Mt. Kilimanjaro, Africa. It is considered as among the very best work by the author. From the text, "The marvelous thing is that it's painless, he said. That's how you know when it starts. Is it really? Absolutely. I'm awfully sorry about the odor though. That must bother you. Don't! Please don't. Look at them, he said. Now is it sight or is it scent that brings them like that? The cot the man lay on was in the wide shade of a mimosa tree and as he looked out past the shade onto the glare of the plain there were three of the big birds squatted obscenely, while in the sky a dozen more sailed, making quick-moving shadows as they passed."
