Classic New Yorker magazine covers
You can't judge a book - or magazine, or even an iPad - by its cover. But you can certainly judge the covers themselves. And for decades since its 1925 debut, The New Yorker Magazine's covers have projected a sophistication befitting its literary pedigree. Amusing, ironic, and sometimes iconic.
