This vintage The New Yorker issue from August 12, 1939, features a delightful cover by Perry Barlow, an illustrator renowned for his charming depictions of everyday moments with humor and warmth. Barlow’s covers often highlighted relatable and whimsical aspects of life, making him a favorite among collectors of The New Yorker art.
The magazine is in very good condition for its age, with minor wear on the edges (see photos). As issues from this period are increasingly hard to find, with likely only a handful still in circulation, this is a rare and valuable collector's piece.
Please review the photos to assess the condition for yourself. With over 4,000 issues of The New Yorker in stock, this rare edition would be an excellent addition to any collection!
