Hemingway, again

At a cafe in Pamplona, 1925
Ernest Hemingway has been a long time advocate of the beret, leaving a nice legacy of photographs of himself with beret and his various wifes. 
Here he shows his beret with Ava Gardner in the bullring of Valencia:
Or this one, taken on the 1st of January, 1955, with his fourth wife - journalist Mary Welsh journalist and Ava Gardner.

And this 1960 photograph by Marcel Mitrani, Hemingway, Ava Gardner and his friend toreador Luis Miguel Dominguín.

  1. HEMINGWAY ON STAGE purchased a beret in Madrid a few years ago for use in performance but it was the broad rather than the narrow beret which my Basque friends tell me would have been more appropriate. See a picture at www.briangordonsinclair.com.
    Come to Key West for a performance July 22,23.
