Description

Vogue Magazine October 1, 1964 – Wilhelmina Cooper Cover by Irving Penn

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 Vogue issue from October 1, 1964, features the timeless elegance of Wilhelmina Cooper on the cover, photographed by the legendary Irving Penn. Capturing the refined sophistication and evolving beauty ideals of the mid-1960s, this edition highlights couture from Italy, evening fashion innovations, and a distinctive focus on international culture and artistry.

The condition of the item is good. The item pictured in this listing is exactly the same one you will receive. Please check the provided photos for condition purposes.

We do offer combined shipping—just ask. All of our items come with a plastic protective covering for preservation.
