Original Vanity Fair
August 25th, 2008
I have what appears to be an original “Vanity Fair” print.?
The artist is Hay, the date is March 30, 1889, and the title is “Punchestown”. I really don’t want to pay anyone to appraise it, since I bought it at a yardsale. Any ideas on how I can find out it’s worth?
Prints are not ‘original’ works of art because they are prints. In other words, reproductions. Some prints can be worth some money if: They are signed, limited edition reproductions by a famous or collectible artist.
Because of it’s age your Vanity Fair cover would be worth something to a collector of old books and magazines but it not likely that you have the original drawing, watercolor or illustration for the original cover from the March 1889 issue of Vanity Fair. Most illustrations done as magazine covers and commissioned by the magazine (like all the famous Norman Rockwell covers for The Saturday Evening Post) are bought outright and owned by the magazine and kept as part of their private museum collection.
I may be wrong but I don’t think so. I could probably tell you for sure if it is an original magazine illustration or a reproduction if I could see the cover. You might want to re-submit your question with a link to a photograph of the art work.

Vanity Fair $90.81 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Vanity Fare (due to the similarity of the novel and magazine title often misspelled Vanity Fair) were a UK pop/rock group formed in 1966, best remembered for their million selling song, Hitchin a Ride, which became a worldwide hit in 1970. School friends Trevor Brice (born 12 February 1945, Rochester, Kent, England) (vocals), Tony Goulden (born Anthony Goulden, 21 November 1942, Rochester) (guitar), Dick Allix (born Richard Allix, 3 May 1945, Gravesend, Kent) (drums) and Tony Jarrett (born Anthony Jarrett, 4 September 1943, in Rochester, Kent) (bass) formed the band in Kent in 1966, originally calling themselves The Avengers. They played local clubs and were spotted by entrepreneur Roger Easterby who became their manager and producer. Having changed the name of the band to Vanity Fare after the novel Vanity Fair by William Makepeace Thackeray, they signed to Page One Records (a division of Bell Records). Vanity Fare achieved a UK hit single with their first release, a cover of I Live For The Sun (originally recorded by The Sunrays in 1965) in the summer of 1968.

Vanity Fair (Novel) $119.48 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Vanity Fair: A Novel without a Hero is a novel by William Makepeace Thackeray, first published in 184748, satirizing society in early 19thcentury Britain. The books title comes from John Bunyans allegorical story The Pilgrims Progress, first published in 1678 and still widely read at the time of Thackerays novel. Vanity fair refers to a stop along the pilgrims progress: a neverending fair held in a town called Vanity, which is meant to represent mans sinful attachment to worldly things. The novel is now considered a classic, and has inspired several film adaptations. The story opens at Miss Pinkertons Academy for Young Ladies, where the principal protagonists Becky Sharp and Amelia Sedley have just completed their studies and are preparing to depart for Amelias house in Russell Square. Becky is portrayed as a strongwilled and cunning young woman determined to make her way in society, and Amelia Sedley as a goodnatured, loveable, though simpleminded young girl. Author: Miller, Frederic P./ Vandome, Agnes F./ McBrewster, John Binding Type: Paperback Number of Pages: 188 Publication Date: 2010/10/08 Language: English Dimensions: 6.00 x 9.02 x 0.43 inches |
