An issue of Interview magazine bearing a handwritten signature of Andy Warhol (1928-1987) on the cover.

Founded by Warhol and John Wilcock in 1969, Interview became closely associated with the New York art world, celebrity culture, fashion, film, and the broader social circle surrounding Warhol. As such, the magazine provides a particularly relevant and visually compelling medium for his autograph.

The black-ink signature appears prominently along the left portion of the illustrated cover. Visible handwriting characteristics include the enlarged and freely constructed opening of "Andy," compressed connected letterforms through the central portion, a pronounced overall inclination, and elongated terminal strokes extending away from the principal signature body. These elements provide useful points of comparison with documented variations of Warhol's autograph.

The placement of the signature preserves the principal cover imagery while remaining immediately visible. The magazine exhibits expected signs of age and handling, including edge wear, minor creasing, and general surface wear, contributing to the character of the period publication.

The combination of Warhol's signature with Interview-a publication inseparably connected with his own cultural legacy-gives the piece particular appeal within collections devoted to Pop Art, twentieth-century cultural history, and signed memorabilia.
