Fashion History ~ the iconic Beverly Johnson cover of US Vogue!
This is the very first time that an African American graced the cover of American Vogue! Much sought-after super rare issue from August 1974. This magazine featured in the HBO documentary about Donyale Luna where Beverley was poignantly interviewed.

Excellent condition. Barely visible imperfection where the subscription sticker was placed over the text on the bottom left of the cover. Not obvious as it is camoflaged within the wording. The photos are from the actual magazine that you will receive - we don't use stock images. A very scarce issue indeed! The Maybelline ad is the back cover. A RARE and DESIRABLE COPY.
