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.

When was the first thanksgiving in what would become the United States? Virginia says 1619 in, of course, Virginia. More familiar, though, is a 1621 feast in what is now Plymouth, Massachusetts, involving Pilgrims and the Wampanoag people. Competing claims aside, the American holiday is now celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November.

Eustace Tilley (above), a cover illustration by Rea Irvin, has long been the mascot of The New Yorker.

In recent years, he has been depicted or commemorated in many different ways.

The New Yorker has repeatedly rebuked or ridiculed Donald Trump on its covers since at least 2015. Several artists have contributed to the effort, with Barry Blitt seemingly serving as the most frequent go-to guy when the times call for yet another cutting reference.

Birds of almost every size and description have popped up on covers of The New Yorker from time to time. Some of them closely, or at least loosely, resemble actual birds. Others are too whimsical and fanciful to be mistaken for anything that exists in the real world. These are not all birds of a feather, by any means.
