These are joyous, and I had no idea. I just love that one of the kids in the hammock. Is the logo off-center to accommodate, or is that a trick of the eye?

Hey there, Robert...I just pulled that copy out of the archives and measured the margins. It's 1 1/4" on the left and 3/4" on the right, so...

(as an aside tho...I also measured a copy of the very first issue of The New Yorker and the logo is slightly off-center as well, but not as much as this Steig cover).
