Hardcover. Etat : Near Fine. 1st Edition. A true first edition, first printing of The Best Short Stories of 1923 and the Yearbook of the American Short Story, edited by Edward J. O'Brien. Published by Small, Maynard & Company, Boston, in 1924, this landmark annual anthology is an important work in twentieth-century American literature. Most notably, it contains the first appearance of Ernest Hemingway's celebrated short story, My Old Man, in book form, making it a significant title for Hemingway collectors. The true first printing is further distinguished by the famous misspelling of Hemingway's name as "Hemenway" in the dedication and contents, a well-known bibliographical point sought by collectors. This copy is a true first edition, first printing and remains in Near Fine condition. The binding is tight, the gilt lettering remains attractive, and the interior is clean and well preserved, with only light signs of age consistent with nearly a century of careful ownership. No dust jacket is present. An increasingly desirable early Hemingway-related title and an important anthology of American short fiction, this volume represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a well-preserved first printing of a book that marks Hemingway's first appearance in book form. A fine addition to collections of Ernest Hemingway, modern first editions, and twentieth-century American literature.…
