You are purchasing the exact Lot of 6 Mad Magazine Super Specials in the photos that accompany this listing. Please carefully examine all photos and read following descriptions.
Number 30 (Spring 1980) - Spine has light wear along edges, dent at bottom. Front cover has a light "scrape" across back of Alfred's head that appears to be a printing error rather than actual damage, light "smudge" on the right edge of the "E" in "THE", light wear along bottom edge and bottom right corner, light spots of wear at left corners adjacent to top and bottom of spine. Back cover has "smudge" likely caused by thumb of reader on the left edge of the center panel, small dents adjacent to top and bottom of spine.
Number 31 (Summer 1980) - Mystery Record is MISSING as shown in 10th photo so you WILL NOT receive the record with your purchase. Spine is sharp. Front cover has slight wear on tip of bottom right corner, couple of slight nicks along bottom edge, and if you hold it at the right angle under bright light there is a very faint vertical indentation (not a crease) from top to bottom that may be a flaw in the original paper, but is so faint it's not visible when viewed flat under normal light. Back cover has light wear at very tips of corners and a couple of light short crescent shaped lines of wear. Fold-in has NOT been folded. Includes parody of "The Godfather".
Number 32 (Fall 1980) - Spine has a small chunk missing from top adjacent to front cover, dent at bottom, wear along edges especially adjacent to back cover. Front cover has a few minor short creases, light wear at bottom right corner, small light "smudge" at top of "M" of Nostalgic Mad. Back cover has many worn spots across entire area, light creases bottom left corner, few small nicks along edges. Fold-in has NOT been folded, so back cover is flat. Comic Book Insert (Nostalgic Mad #8 with reprints of 1950s MAD material) is firmly attached to the inside of the magazine, has no wear on edges, flat, sharp, colorful, but the front cover was arguably improperly trimmed during manufacture as the last "E" in "FREE" is cut off as you can see in the 8th photo.
Number 33 (Winter 1980) - Spine worn at bottom, has small light brown stains along bottom half. Front cover has crease at tip of bottom right corner, small dent on bottom edge, small wrinkle on bottom left corner adjacent to spine. Back cover has a few faint crescent-shaped discolored lines creases, couple of areas of light wear. Notice in 11th and 12th photos that the triple sheet of stamps has separated along perforations between first and second sheets, leaving first sheet firmly attached inside magazine, while second and third sheets are separate but still attached to each other. Stamps look very fresh, sharp, adhesive side shiny.
Number 34 (Spring 1981) - Spine has tiny chunk missing from top, dent at bottom, light wear along edges, "smudge" over the "er" in "number". Front cover has horizontal crease top to bottom near spine, tiny crease at tip of top right corner, wear at tip of bottom right corner, few small nicks along edges. Back cover has small worn spots at top and bottom right corners adjacent to spine, few dents along left edge. Features parodies of TV shows including "Star Trek" and "Batman".
Number 35 (Summer 1981) - Spine has tiny chunks missing from top and bottom adjacent to front cover, couple of areas of light wear along edges. Front cover has horizontal creases top to bottom next to spine, near middle, and at right edge; light "smudge" at center of right edge perhaps caused by thumb of reader. Back cover has several worn areas across face, wear along left edge, crease at bottom left corner. Notice in 13th photo that the "Window Stickers" have stuck to each other and efforts to separate them resulted in much tearing and damage, so I would call the sticker set a total loss.
No missing pages. Pages have expected levels of age-related light browning along edges. White areas of covers often have occasional light brown stipples/spots.
