Fortune Magazine – March 1932 – Vol. 5 No. 3 – Diego Rivera Cover – Near Mint
🖼️ Cover Artwork by Diego Rivera
A stunning and rare example of Fortune magazine’s early artistic brilliance, this March 1932 edition features an original cover by renowned Mexican muralist Diego Rivera — a coveted issue for collectors of political art, period journalism, and Soviet history.
📚 Featured Highlights:
-
Henry L. Stimson and an in-depth look at the U.S. Department of State
-
The Printing Telegraph / Teletypewriter and AT&T – pioneering communication technology of the era
-
Housing II: The Prime Raw Material – a continuing exploration of America’s housing crisis during the Depression
-
Autogiro II – the future of aviation in 1932, showcasing early rotary-wing aircraft
-
The Hoover Dam – visionary American infrastructure in the making
-
A massive special feature on Russia:
-
The Preface, The Soviet State, The Eternal Peasant, The Five-Year Plan, Communist Life, and Karl Marx
-
Richly illustrated with original Russian color propaganda posters
-
🗞️ Condition:
This 92-year-old issue is in remarkable near-mint condition:

Covers are vibrant, complete, and feature Rivera’s artwork in brilliant clarity
-
Interior pages are clean, unmarked, and fully intact
-
Spine shows only minimal cosmetic wear (a few superficial surface nibbles, likely from silverfish, not affecting structure or legibility)
-
A standout example in a market where most surviving copies show significant wear
