This original The New Yorker issue from November 5, 1938, features a delightful cover by Perry Barlow, an artist known for his warm and humorous illustrations of everyday life. Barlow’s covers often portrayed relatable, charming moments, making his work a favorite among collectors of The New Yorker.
The magazine is in good condition for its age, with loose pages (see photos). As issues from this period are becoming increasingly hard to find, with likely only a handful still available, this is a rare and valuable collector’s piece.
Please check the photos to assess the condition for yourself. With over 4,000 issues of The New Yorker in stock, this rare edition would be a unique addition to any collection!
