Ernest Hemingway signed check, filled out entirely in his hand and dated 14 December 1950. Check is addressed to ''Portador'', meaning ''pay the bearer'' in Spanish. Endorsed to verso by Roberto Herrera, Hemingway's friend and manager of his ''Finca Il Vigia'' property in Cuba, which is now a museum. Signed ''Ernest M. Hemingway'', check for $10.00 is drawn on the First National Bank of Boston, Havana Branch. Measures 6.5'' x 2.75''. Very light creasing and standard bank cancellations, one of which affects ''Ernest''. Very good.
