This vintage The New Yorker issue from June 11, 1938, features an eye-catching cover by Constantin Alajalov, a master of satirical and vibrant illustrations. Alajalov was known for his sharp wit and distinctive style, making him one of the few artists to have created covers for both The New Yorker and The Saturday Evening Post. His work remains highly sought after by collectors.
The magazine is in very good condition for its age, with only minor wear along the edges (see photos). Issues from this era are becoming increasingly rare, and with likely only a handful still in circulation, this is a true collector’s gem.
Please take a look at the photos to assess the condition for yourself. With over 4,000 issues of The New Yorker in stock, this rare edition would make a valuable addition to any collection!
