An example of original cover art by Abe Birnbaum for The New Yorker was sold on Tuesday at Heritage Auctions. The 1960 magazine cover illustration depicts workers and cranes at a city construction site. The cranes extend upward and out of the image, which naturally serves to emphasize their height. The art is notable for Birnbaum's use of bold lines and flat, mostly primary, colors.
