Dogs of the New Yorker September 7, 2025

We are lucky New Yorkers as we now have another Museum dedicating an exhibition to the celebration of the New Yorker magazine’s 100th anniversary. The AKC Museum of the Dog is now exhibiting a private collection of 44 covers of The New Yorker related to dogs. The collection spans nearly the entire run of the magazine with covers featuring the work of New Yorker notables such as Peter Arno, James Thurber, Charles Addams, and Mark Ulriksen.The exhibition includes commentary on the specific covers with additional background material supplied by the staff and archives of The New Yorker. In addition to the role of dogs in the City, other themes include dog shows, grooming, country life and sports.  There is also be a section of covers produced around the Westminster Kennel Club’s annual dog show. This is a fun exhibit (as is the whole museum) and will be running thru December 7th. Woof!
