For Whom the Bell Tolls by Ernest Hemingway – First Edition Library Facsimile of the 1940 Original – Slipcase, Dust Jacket

A beautiful First Edition Library (FEL) facsimile of For Whom the Bell Tolls by Ernest Hemingway, replicating the original 1940 Charles Scribner’s Sons first printing in every detail, including the classic Scribner’s “A” on the copyright page, original $2.75 price on the dust jacket flap, and period-authentic typography, binding, and jacket design. This exact reproduction captures the craftsmanship and atmosphere of the wartime original — Hemingway’s epic tale of courage, love, and sacrifice during the Spanish Civil War, long considered one of his greatest works and a defining American novel of the 20th century.

Very Good to Near Fine condition. The beige full-cloth boards are clean and bright, stamped with Hemingway’s signature on the front cover and black spine titling on red panels that remain crisp and vivid. Deckled pages are clean and unmarked, with a small previous owner’s signature inside the cover. The dust jacket is unclipped with the original $2.75 price visible on the flap; shows only three small nicks along the top edge, including one on the back, and light shelf wear from careful handling. The matching pictorial slipcase remains solid and clean, showing only minor fading along the spine from shelf exposure. A handsome, collectible example of the First Edition Library’s masterful homage to Hemingway’s 1940 classic.
