Jack Hirschman (1933-2021), poet, signed 6x5 photo of Ernest Hemmingway. Hirschman is probably best remembered for this: When he was 19 years old, Hirschman sent a story to Ernest Hemingway, who responded: ”I can't help you, kid. You write better than I did when I was 19. But the hell of it is, you write like me. That is no sin. But you won't get anywhere with it.” Hirschman left a copy of the letter with the Associated Press, and when Hemingway killed himself in 1961, the ”Letter to a Young Writer” was distributed by the wire service and published all over the world. Good condition. All autographs come with a Certificate of Authenticity. We combine postage on multiple winning lots and can ship worldwide.
