This vintage The New Yorker issue from May 6, 1939, features a striking cover by Ilonka Karasz, a pioneering modernist artist known for her bold, intricate designs and geometric patterns. Karasz’s innovative style brought a fresh, artistic perspective to The New Yorker covers, making her work highly collectible.
The magazine is in very good condition for its age, with minor wear along the edges (see photos). As issues from this time period are becoming increasingly rare, with only a handful likely still in circulation, this edition is a valuable and hard-to-find collectible.
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 a wonderful addition to any collection!
