Some New Yorker cartoonists have been sharing their #FirstFive for the magazine. 🙂 I'm a little late to the party, but here's my own first five there (print mag and online), starting in 2020:

With mass motorization & excursions as recreation, the countryside - it was often noted - changed, and not always for the better, a transformation delightfully evoked in the Gershwins’ “Meadow Serenade” (1927)

Find of the day.

This June 19, 1965 issue of #TheNewYorker contains the last original work that #JDSalinger published in his lifetime and it has never been reprinted.

He considered "Hapworth 16, 1924" a high point of his writing, but no one else did.

$3.00 pick up at a garage sale. $500 online.
