Monday Tilley Watch…The New Yorker Issue Of May 30, 2022

The Monday Tilley Watch Takes A Glancing Look At The Art & Artists Of The Latest Issue Of The New Yorker

The Cover: beignets & coffee in New Orleans

The Cartoonists & Cartoons: 

Fifteen cartoons, fifteen cartoonists. No duos (that we know of). No newbies. A note about the Harry Bliss drawing in the issue: the squirrel’s inner thoughts may sound familiar to aficiandos of the 1980 movie, Caddyshack, in particular this scene with Bill Murray. 

The longest active contributor in the issue is the great Edward Koren, who is in his 60th year of contributing  to The New Yorker.

Mr. Koren’s first New Yorker drawing appeared in the issue of May 26, 1962; Ink Spill will celebrate Mr. Koren’s milestone with a lengthy interview this Thursday, May 26th.

 Rea Irvin’s iconic Talk design (above), was abandoned for a — gasp! — redraw in the Spring of 2017.  Read about it here
