The New Yorker Magazine, May 12, 1945, complete issue in gorgeous shape, as-new. Edna Eicke illustrated the cover.
Among the writers in this issue: S.J. Perelman, David Morton, Margaret MacMillan, Peter Packer, Ralph Frye, and Peggy Bacon.
The cartoonists are Robert J. Day, Sam Cobean, George Price, Mischa Richter, William de la Torre, Otto Soglow, Julian de Miskey, and Gardner Rea.
Also included in this issue is an extensive profile of Jean Wahl, the French philosopher, poet, and Sorbonne professor who has been called by Jacques Maritain "the best philosopher among the professors of philosophy in Sorbonne."
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 NEAR 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.
