...I bought the entire MAD magazine library on a DVD from Amazon.
Much easier than paper.
Some of the older ones from the 1950s making fun of the comic strips at the time are priceless.
Follow Ups:
My favorite Alfred covers were by Norman Mingo.
Mort Drucker, Jack Rickard, and Jack Davis were my favorites inside the mag.
And lest I forget to mention Dave Berg. A little "Roger Kaputnik" lives in all us of the older generation!
See ya. Dave
All this talk of the great artists of MAD magazine and no mention of the great (Charles) Rodrigues!!?(my namesake!!) Of special interest to us is that he was a hysterical satirist on all things audio. I still have a full set of 'Sounds Like...' magazine where he used to be featured. Rodriguez was the ONLY cartoonist I can think of that specified in the audiophile culture. Pretty sure he worked for Stereo Review back in the day. In MAD magazine he was the guy who drew these tiny doodles outside the borders that were simply fantastic!
I think it was Sergio Aragonés who drew the little cartoons in the margins.
See ya. Dave
My bad! Of course yr right. I'm even more embarrassed as I'm also a longtime fan of Sergio Aragones!
We all love those old Rodrigues cartoons. They poke fun at our types so we can see how we're perceived. Always a good laugh!
See ya. Dave
