New Yorker magazine May 8 1948 Laurie Lee Charles Addams Ogden Nash FINE

$200 · Offered by eBay

The New Yorker Magazine, May 8 1948, the complete issue in exceptional shape. Julian de Miskey illustrated the cover. This issue includes an extensive profile of musical comedy producer Cheryl Crawford, fiction by Frances Gray Patton, Wolcott Gibbs, Weare Holbrook, and Winifred Williams, poetry by Laurie Lee and Ogden Nash, a Charles Addams cartoon, and much more. The pages are crisp and clean, without a hint of foxing or any other staining, no writing, no odors, nothing missing, tight to the staples, no creases, with a 1" split at the top of the spine otherwise as-new. Strictly graded Fine; 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.
