Some Long Ago Cartoonist Covers

I recently went on a little online adventure searching for Corey Ford covers by New Yorker artists. Along the way I also found a cover on a non-Ford title. I’m showing it here because it’s so striking.

The John Riddell Murder Case by John Riddell. 1930. Cover artist: Miguel Covarrubias

The Gazelle’s Ears by Corey Ford. 1926. Cover by Al Frueh.

Never Say Diet by Corey Ford. 1954. Cover art: R. Taylor

You Can Always Tell A Fisherman by Corey Ford. 1958. Cover art: William Steig
