A Judith Leiber minaudière, a clutch with multiple compartments, is decorated in crystal with a colorful New Yorker image including the magazine's mascot Eustace Tilley on one side and solid black on the other. An example was sold online, sale date unknown, by the Real Real, for $1,795, a significant discount from the estimated retail price of $4,995. The design is clearly adapted from the dustjacket of The Complete Book of Covers from The New Yorker 1925-1989. The latter date has here been altered to 1995, the magazine's seventieth anniversary and evidently the date the miniature handbag was released.
