Steinberg, Not Steinberg
Looking through the October 8, 1955 New Yorker I came upon a Steinberg ad for Emerson. Some moments later I ran into what I thought, at first glance, was a second Steinberg ad (for Barwick carpets), but noooo. (the drawing is credited to someone named “Lynn”).

The New Yorker’s 100th
Articles relating to the magazine’s centennial
From The Wrap, January 24, 2025, “The New Yorker Doc From Marshall Curry, Judd Apatow Lands At Netflix” by Lucas Manfredi.

From New York magazine, January 23, 2025, “The New Yorker’s Anxious 100th Birthday” by Charlotte Klein.
Interesting piece that ironically neglects to note The Society of Illustrators Drawn From The New Yorker: A Centennial Celebration (it’s the only exhibit dedicated to New Yorker cartoonists — including cover art — in The New Yorker‘s centennial year). I say “ironically” because there is (and has been) a perception, among some, that the advent of New York magazine marked the beginning of the decline of using cartoons in mass market magazines.
