Background:
While The New Yorker magazine is known for the
quality of its writing, many people also recognize the distinctive cover style and
cartoons featured in the magazine.
We are pleased to feature a selection of
original cover art from 1970. The covers are noteworthy for the range of their
subject matter - life of the upper and middle class, sporting activities and the "big
city".
The covers shown here include work by frequent
contributors to The New Yorker including Charles Addams, Abe Birnbaum, Charles Martin and
Arthur Getz.
The appeal of The New Yorker covers is best
summarized by the following description from a book on the history of the magazine:
The covers capture "A special moment, fleetingly observed".
