8vo. Color frontispiece by Juan Gris. (A touch of marginal toning.) Original black cloth gilt (slight rubbing to extremities); in unclipped dust jacket (some toning, some chipping with some tears including a 2 1/2-in. closed tear to rear panel just touching text and a 3/4-in. closed tear affecting the "E" in "Ernest" on the front panel, some minor creasing along panel folds).

FIRST EDITION, FIRST PRINTING, with Scribner's "A" and seal on copyright page. Published when Hemingway was in his early thirties and living in Key West, Death in the Afternoon "represents the author at his best, first as a writer and second as someone who was never satisfied with knowing only a little about his subject but who always dug deeply until he had both the essence and the smallest details" (Charles M. Oliver, Ernest Hemingway A to Z, p.74). Hanneman A10a.
