The New Yorker Magazine, June 16, 1962, the complete issue in exquisite shape, as-new.  Abe Birnbaum illustrated the cover. This issue includes the first published appearance of the Rachel Carson story "Silent Spring" (part one of three, the other two parts in the subsequent issues), and more.  This is the true first edition, true first printing, earlier than the Houghton Mifflin book. The pages are crisp and clean, without a hint of foxing or any other staining, no writing, nothing missing, tight to the staples, with creasing at the lower left corner. Strictly graded Very Fine/Near Mint; 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.
