The New Yorker Magazine, August 19, 1939, complete issue in gorgeous shape, as-new. Julian de Miskey illustrated the cover.
Among the writers in this issue: Kay Boyle, Phyllis McGinley, Cornelia Otis Skinner, Rolfe Humphries, Russell Maloney, Elizabeth Coatsworth, Angelica Gibbs, and Will Scarlet.
The cartoonists are: Charles Addams, Alan Dunn, James Thurber, Peter Arno, Helen E. Hokinson, Garrett Price, Perry Barlow, William Steig, George Price, Robert J. Day, Perry Barlow, and Barbara Shermund.
This issue also includes part two of an extensive profile of Lew Dufour and Joe Rogers, Fair Midway concessionaires.
The pages are crisp and clean, bright white without a hint of foxing or any other staining, no writing, no creases, nothing missing, tight to the staples. Strictly graded Mint; it is in extraordinary shape, put away when brand new (along with many others we have) by an obsessive New Yorker collector from whom we acquired it, untouched since new until now. We have many other beautiful New Yorkers online now so please take a look. All our New Yorkers ship in archival sleeves with backing boards. The images we show are of the actual magazine you will receive.
