Newsweek has recalled more than 100,000 copies of its latest issue that feature Hillary Clinton on the cover with the headline 'Madam President: Hillary Clinton's historic journey to the White House.'

The New York Post reports Newsweek editors prepared covers featuring both potential winners, as is normal practice, but approximately 125,000 copies featuring the Democratic Party nominee were inadvertently distributed.

Clinton conceded the election to President-Elect Donald Trump early Wednesday morning.

According to The Guardian, Newsweek's production partner, Topix Media, told the Post it distributed the Clinton issue to some stores early, believing the former Secretary of State would be the winner, as almost all polls suggested.

Copies of the Clinton cover are already selling for about $50 on eBay.
