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 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 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.
