The first printing has the letter "A" and Scribner's seal on the copyright page. There are two variant dust jackets - one with the back photo of Hemingway tinted blue, and one where the photo is olive. This is thought to be caused by printing problems, and one does not take precedence over the other as a first edition point of issue. Hemingway's signature greatly increases value.
The Old Man and the Sea book won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction.
