The New Yorker Magazine, December 25, 1948 complete issue in good shape. Peter Arno did the cover. This issue includes a Talk of the Town featurette about the new comic book invented by the originators of "Superman", Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster; this issue also includes the writing of Nathaniel Benchley ("the story "Deck the Halls"), Frank Sullivan, John J. Espey, Wolcott Gibbs, John McCarten, John Seymour Sharnick, Robert M. Coates, Richard H. Rovere, Philip Hamburger, Emily Hahn, Mollie Panter-Downes, Martha Keller, Louise Bogan, and others. The pages are crisp and clean, without a hint of foxing or any other staining, no writing, nothing missing, tight to the staples, with a 1/2" tear at the top edge of the back cover disappearing into several pages at the back. Strictly graded Good; it was put away when brand new (along with many others we have) by an obsessive New Yorker collector from whom we acquired it, almost untouched since new until now. We have many other New Yorker issues from this once-in-a-lifetime collection, so if there is one you want that you don't see in our listings yet, please let us know.
