So, I read that The New Yorker was having some manner of cover competition. Seeing as my illustrative talents end with Wolf Blizter's glorious, glorious face, I though I'd try something a bit more algorithmic. Whelp.
It's all the New Yorker covers arranged chronologically. There are important historical events along the left spine, and little lines connecting them to the proper issues. See?
I know it doesn't look like I spent the whole weekend on it, but hey. We all make mistakes. Did you know there's somewhere around 3,700 issues of the New Yorker? Did you know they skip a semi-random number of issues per year in some semi-random fashion? Given a flat set of images of issue covers, how would you figure out which issues fell on which dates? I'll give you a hint: It's really fun.
