The New Yorker!

I really love ‘The New Yorker’ !

‘The New Yorker’ magazine was first published on February 21st 1925. Below is the cover of the first issue, depicting Eustace Tilley, the mascot of the magazine.

Founded by Harold W. Ross, ‘The New Yorker’ is an American weekly magazine, famous for its variety of literature and humour. Initially, its focus was New York’s amusements, social and cultural life, but as time passed, it acquired a broader scope, encompassing literature, current affairs, short fiction, essays, comic drawings, cinema, theatre and book reviews and other arts…and many other topics! It has always appealed to a sophisticated, well educated audience!

 I came across ‘The New Yorker’ around 15 years ago, when I purchased this book, above. It’s a fab book which I love to dip into at Christmas…a proper coffee table book, designed to get you well and truly into the Christmas Spirit!

But that’s not all! 

Posters! 

Unbeknown to me, a few years ago, my son had also discovered ‘The New Yorker’, and he had purchased 4 posters;  he keeps these in one frame and then he changes them every so often.

There are, indeed, a wonderful range of posters that can be purchased! And so when my other half asked what I would like for Christmas, I thought, ‘I know!’ 

Thus, right now, I’m browsing one or two sites that have the most amazing selection of ‘New Yorker’ posters!

What a dilemma..or is it dilemna? ( This is often a discussion in our house!)

Here are just a few:

           I love the variety as well as the history!
