HEMINGWAY, ERNEST. Autograph letter signed (initials) to C.W. Wilcox, Finca Vigia, San Francisco de Paula, Cuba, 24 June 1952. One page, 4to, on onion skin paper with Hemingway's address imprinted in red, with the stamped envelope addressed by Hemingway.
"Thanks for sending me the presents. It was damned nice of you. Would you please send and charge me the following..." Here Hemingway lists 12 books and their authors (giving publishers for several), including The Trouble with Cinderella by Artie Shaw, Harpoon Venture by Gavin Maxwell, Tales of Adventurers by Geoffrey Household, and The Thurber Album. He continues: "Haven't drawn many good ones [books] lately. The trouble with that matador book is that if Manolete wasn't drunk on the day of the fight when he was killed, it was a terrible thing to write. He had Manolete on the cover and references all through the book. Thank you very much for sending it though. Hope you like my new one [The Old Man and the Sea]. Let me know will you please..."
