The Monday Tilley Watch Takes A Glancing Look At The Art & Artists Of The Latest Issue Of The New Yorker
The Cover: War
The Cartoonists & Cartoons:
Nine cartoons, nine cartoonists. No duos (that we know of). No newbies. The longest active contributor in this issue is Sam Gross, whose first New Yorker drawing appeared in the issue of August 23, 1969. The most recent contributor is Jon Adams who began contributing in October of 2017 (Maggie Larson also began contributing in 2017, but earlier in the year).

The Rea Irvin Talk Watch: Another issue goes by without our being able to eyeball and admire Rea Irvin’s classic Talk design shown below. You might remember it was 86ed in the Spring of 2017 (after appearing for 92 years) and replaced by — gasp! — a redraw. Read all about it here.
