The Old Man and The Sea Written by Ernest Hemingway

1952 book of the month printing

 

 

What makes this particular copy unique is that it was printed almost simultaneously with the true first edition. This story, having been printed first in Life magazine, sold over 5 million copies. The first edition had an original print run of around 50,000. Almost immediately, if not simultaneously, a book of the month edition/book club edition was released in a print run of about 150,000 to help satisfy the demand.

Both books share the original jacket design and color, as well as the "A" on the copyright page.

 

This copy lacks the price of $3 on the dust jacket and the publishers' crest on the copyright page.
