Isn't this pretty? A recent issue of the New Yorker had a marvelous cover that spread over three pages. I couldn't find the three page spread on the New Yorker site, so I thought I'd piece them together myself. Might be handy as a slide one of these days.

Click here if you want a larger version - not high resolution, but big enough to translate well if you wanted to use it for a powerpoint presentation or something. (Note that you can also purchase the cover for real at the New Yorker site, but for some reason, it's only the first page of the spread)
