This vintage The New Yorker issue from September 30, 1939, features a vibrant cover by Constantin Alajalov, an artist celebrated for his satirical and colorful depictions of American life. Alajalov’s unique style and sharp commentary made him one of The New Yorker’s most beloved cover artists, and his works remain highly collectible today.
The magazine is in very good condition for its age, with minor wear along the edges (see photos). Given that issues from this era are becoming increasingly rare, with only a handful still likely in circulation, this edition 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 a standout addition to any collection!
