Around mid-February, every year, The New Yorker, releases its anniversary issue, which is a replica (or a mild variant) of the magazine's inaugural issue. It features an illustration of a dandy named Eustace Tilley, peering at a butterfly through a monocle.
I note with interest the change in the figure on the upper right corner of the cover. The price of the magazine, since it debuted on February 21, 1925, has soared by 400 times, up from 15 cents to $5.99 presently.
