This vintage The New Yorker issue from December 2, 1939, features an exquisite cover by Ilonka Karasz, a pioneering modernist artist known for her intricate and bold designs. Karasz’s distinctive style brought a fresh, innovative perspective to The New Yorker covers, making her work highly sought after by collectors.
The magazine is in very good condition for its age, with minor wear along the edges (see photos). Given the rarity of issues from this era, with likely only a handful still in circulation, this is a valuable and hard-to-find collector's item.
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 make an excellent addition to any collection!
