Description

Vogue Magazine August 15, 1963 – Wilhelmina Cooper Cover by Bert Stern (GD Interior)

From a privately held Vogue archive, 1920s–1970s. These were stored away for decades and recently brought back into circulation. We performed light, dry surface cleaning at the outer spine (vacuum/brush/smoke sponge only; no wet methods), then placed each issue in a new archival sleeve.

What to expect: honest vintage traits, binding wear or small splits, staple-rust halos, edge toning, and period shelf dust that can appear as black residue along the spine. Interiors are dry and legible. Some copies retain a light vintage paper aroma typical of mid-century magazines.

Each listing shows the exact issue you’ll receive. Any condition materially beyond the above is noted in that item’s description. These characteristics reflect long, earlier storage before we acquired the collection; all items are now housed in clean sleeves and stored upright.


This vintage issue of Vogue Magazine from August 15, 1963, features the timeless Wilhelmina Cooper photographed by Bert Stern, one of fashion’s most iconic photographers. Capturing the transition into fall, this issue celebrates the artistry of tailoring, the sensuality of new fabrics, and the rise of cinematic influence—with Italian legends Federico Fellini and Marcello Mastroianni gracing its pages.

The condition of the item is acceptable with good interior. This item has creases on the front, marks, and within. There may be additional marks or rips as well.
The item pictured in this listing is exactly the same one you will receive.
Please check the picture for condition purposes.
We do offer combined shipping—just ask.
All of our items come with a plastic protective covering.
