Entire issue, July 14, 1961, in original wraps with portrait of the subject, covers lightly worn, several small nicks / scratches / chips noted along spine edge, and a few archival tape repairs noted at spine, a decent copy overall. The elusive, highly collectible Hemingway memorial issue, with a preface by LIFE, a photographic essay, including explanatory text, with 10 pages of pictures spanning Hemingway's adult life, by Hemingway's friend Robert Capa, who would work with Hemingway multiple times for Life Magazine, and Larry Burrows, Francis Miller, George Leavens, John Bryson, and Loomis Dean, and the 2-page MacLeish essay, His Mirror Was Danger. From the editor's preface, "For us at Life, the death of Ernest Hemingway is a special loss, for he was a cherished colleague of ours. From the time in 1937 when he wrote captions for one of our picture stories on the Spanish War to last summer, when we published parts of his latest work (The Dangerous Summer), he was both a contributor to Life and a good friend."
