THE YELLOW BOOK

Published by John Lane at The Bodley Head in thirteen quarterly volumes between 1894-1897, The Yellow Book was edited by Henry Harland and, in the first year of the magazine’s print run, Aubrey Beardsley. The Y90s digital edition (2011-2014), edited by Lorraine Janzen Kooistra and Dennis Denisoff, has been revised and updated for Y90s 2.0.
