Over the years, I’ve shown a lot of non-US James Thurber book covers. When I ran across these Charles Addams books published in Spain (the top one in 2009 and the one below it in 2017) it dawned on me that it would be fun to hunt for non-US covers by other New Yorker artists. So I’ll be on the look-out.
