VOGUE'S 
THIRTIETH ANNIVERSARY 
NUMBER 
JANUARY 1 , 1923 
Vogue was foEinded in late December, 1892. In the thirty years of its 
existence, the magazine has attained a position and prosperity unique among 
periodicals. Its name has become a household word among American 
women, and through its widely circulated editions, printed in several lan¬ 
guages, Vogue today is familiarly known among women throughout the 
civilized world. Within its chosen field, Vogue’s authority is unchallenged, 
its influence is unrivalled. In these past thirty years, its forecasts have 
invariably been confirmed by usage. 
We are planning to recognize this extraordinary achievement by publishing 
a Thirtieth Anniversary Number of Vogue — an issue which will contrast 
mightily with the flimsy thirty-six-page Vogue of thirty years ago — one 
which will be worthy of the event it commemorates. 
Vogue for January 1, 1923, will be the most striking issue of a fashion 
magazine ever published in any country.
