I don’t get too excited about holidays, with one major exception. I’ve always had a warm spot in my heart for Christmas. The New Yorker has run many Christmas covers over the years, some of which, such as those by the late George Booth, are quite memorable.

New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day are two sides of the same coin, and when it comes to magazine covers, both days have figured prominently. The New Yorker’s covers often gave a tip of the hat to the outgoing/incoming year. Or they focused on drunken revelry and its “morning after” consequences.

Eustace Tilley (above), a cover illustration by Rea Irvin, has long been the mascot of The New Yorker. Eustace graced the first issue of the magazine when it appeared on February 21, 1925, and he has appeared on many covers since then, usually in February. In recent years, he has been depicted or commemorated in many different ways.

The New Yorker isn’t Sports Illustrated, of course. But a fair number of sports, from basketball and baseball to golf and hockey, have graced the magazine's covers in one form or another since its founding in 1925.

Valentine's Day (aka, Saint Valentine's Day) is both a secular holiday and, in its religious context, a holy day as well. Celebrated on February 14, it originated as “a Christian feast day honoring a martyr named Valentine,” according to Wikipedia. It later became a celebration of  love, which is how many of us know it today.

The New Yorker has sporadically featured Mother’s Day covers since at least 1935, only some of which could be described as sentimental. The modern version of the holiday has been around since the early 20th century. In the United States, it is celebrated on the second Sunday in May.

The New Yorker has long been one of the most respected and influential magazines in the history of American publishing. So it comes as no surprise that many of its cover artists have chosen to showcase readers and reading.

Independence Day, commonly known as the Fourth of July in the United States, celebrates the ratification of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776. The Second Continental Congress approved independence on July 2 of that year, but Congress did not adopt the actual declaration until two days later.
