RARE 1985 NEW YORKER Fashion Industry CARTOON BOOK Promo Only NO COPIES FOR SALE

Description: EXTREMELY RARE NEW YORKER CARTOON BOOK Title: YES, THE NEW YORKER Author: Various Publisher: THE NEW YORKER (1985) Description:Dealing in books for years and especially cartoon books and those related to the New Yorker magazine and its artists, I have never run across a copy of this, as it was obviously a limited edition and made for a special occasion (FIT's anniversary) and never made available for sale to the general public. No copies for sale and not listed in OCLC which lists library holdings around the world. It is a book of cartoons and writings about the Fashion Industry by members of The New Yorker Magazine. Covers the 1940s through the 1980s. Published in 1985 it is stated that it is NOT For Sale according to the copyright page. See 4th photo. In rear of book it says: This New Yorker publication recording four decades of fashion in cartoons and commentary was produced to commemorate the Fashion Institute of Technology's 40th Anniversary. Cartoons from Whitney Darrrow, Charles Saxon, George Price, Barney Tobey, Peter Arno, Charles Addams, James Stevenson, Robert Day, Alain, Carl Rose and many other New Yorker cartoonists interspersed with writings about fashion from the famous staff. The introductory page says:We dedicate this glimpse at the past forty years of fashion to our many friends in the industry whohave made it into the vital and creative force it is today. Fashion is fertile ground for New Yorker writers and cartoonists—and has been from the beginning. In the following pages, through every decade, The New Yorker holds up a mirror in which we see ourselves and our fashion and fads and foibles, a mirror that reflects true American style. Condition:Book is nr. fine. Corners and spine ends sharp. Almost no wear. See all photos. Details:wraps unpaginated but about 64 pages - approx. 8 1/2" x 11" 1985 No Printing stated but almost definitely the first and only printing Terms (payment, shipping, tax, returns, feedback, etc.) Please read before buying U.S. bidders only Payment Please pay within 48 hours of winning. eBay managed payments Shipping Shipping will be $6.50 and will be shipped USPS media mail with tracking. We may upgrade your package at our discretion to USPS Ground Advantage. Package will be shipped within 4 business days after payment - usually faster. The USPS can be notoriously slow, it could take 2-3 weeks for delivery. Please take that into account when leaving feedback, that we will ship quickly, but the USPS can take a long time to deliver, and we have no control over delivery time. Why Shipping Costs Are What They Are: eBay users may note that postal rates increased AGAIN on July 14, 2024. That's EIGHT price hikes in 4 years. This was the largest single price increase ever: 10% on media mail. USPS shipping is getting expensive, but eBay also charges sellers 15% on the shipping cost (+ the taxes), in addition to the actual package shipping cost. That fact and the USPS business model has made shipping prices rise quite a bit since 2019. In 2019 a one pound package sent via media mail cost $2.75. Today it is 68% more to send the same package. This is all part of the bi-annual price increases starting in 2020 & the misguided USPS 10 Year Plan - “Delivering For America,” implemented in 2021 which twice per year, every year until 2030 will keep increasing rates, while the USPS continues to lose billions of dollars. Combined Shipping if you Buy or Win Multiple Auctions Multiple book/media auction wins will qualify for combined shipping when possible. Do not pay until auctions you are bidding on are complete. Email to let us know that you will be bidding or have won more than one item. A revised combined invoice will then be sent after you tell us you are done bidding. Otherwise, if you pay before all auctions are complete or pay separately - combined shipping is not available. Sales Tax: If your state has sales tax, it is collected by eBay & then paid to your state tax authority. Sellers do not make money from this but are charged a percentage by eBay on the total sale including tax – insane, but true. Returns No returns. We describe all items conservatively. However, If there is a problem, message us through eBay messages to let us know what the issue is before contacting eBay or initiating a return or leaving feedback and we will work it out. We want satisfied customers. Feedback: After you receive your item and are satisfied, please leave positive feedback and after you do we will reciprocate. Questions There’s no such thing as a stupid question. Please ask any and all questions before bidding. Photos & Descriptions Photos are of the actual item depicted and are part of the description, please view them all. No stock photos, as many other “bulk sellers” listings are used, which doesn’t show the real item you will be receiving. Descriptions are carefully written and detailed so you know exactly what you are bidding on. We reserve copyright to all our own descriptions & photos.
