The New Yorker Magazine, January 12, 1935, complete issue in gorgeous shape. Rea Irvin did the cover.
This issue features the first publication of the Langston Hughes story, "Oyster's Son," a short "Talk of the Town" piece which records Giorgio Joyce's descriptions of his father James Joyce's life and work habits, and more.
The other writers in this issue include: Phyllis McGinley, Arthur Kober, Conrad Aiken, Richard Lockridge, Morris Bishop, Leslie Nelson Jennings, Elizabeth Wilder, Theodore Pratt, Arthur Guiterman, Langston Hughes, Frances Warfield, Horton Heath, and Frances Parker.
The cartoonists are: Alain, George Price, Garrett Price, Carl Rose, Richard Decker, Robert J. Day, Leonard Dove, Gardner Rea, William Steig, Helen E. Hokinson, James Thurber, Ned Hilton, Henry Anton Steig, Alan Dunn, and Otto Soglow.
This issue also includes an extensive profile of lawyer Edward J. Reilly.
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 Fine; 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.
