THIS IS FROM MY PERSONAL COLLECTION, READ BY MY SON AND ME (MANY TIMES, OF COURSE) AND STORED SINCE IN AIR CONDITIONED SPACE, AN EDITION OF
MAD MAGAZINE
THIS ISSUE IS #199 AND WAS PUBLISHED IN JUNE 1978
IF YOU NEED ANY ISSUE FOR YOUR SPECIAL COLLECTION, THIS IS IT!!
WITH THE ANNOUNCEMENT THAT MAD MAGAZINE WOULD CEASE PUBLICATION, WHICH IS A REAL TRAGEDY BECAUSE IT PROVIDED SATIRE THAT IS MOST IMPORTANT FOR EVERY GENERATION AND IN A FORMAT THAT YOU COULD HOLD, AND TREASURE, AND RETURN TO OVER AND OVER, THESE ISSUES WILL BECOME MORE AND MORE DIFFICULT TO OBTAIN. GET THEM NOW WHILE YOU CAN. I AM ONLY SELLING MINE BECAUSE IT IS TIME TO LET THEM GO TO OTHERS TO LOVE AS WE HAVE.
READ ONLINE WHAT FAMOUS COMEDIANS OF TODAY SAY ABOUT HOW MAD MAGAZINE INSPIRED THEM. THIS MAGAZINE WAS THE ROOT OF AMERICAN SATIRE OF WHICH ITS MEMORY NEEDS TO BE PRESERVED
IT COMES PROTECTED, SEALED IN PLASTIC (WHICH CAN BE OPENED AND RESEALED EASILY) WITH MOISTURE ABSORBENT CARDBOARD BACKING.
IT SHOWS NORMAL WEAR. REMEMBER IT NEVER WAS PRINTED ON THAT FINE A PAPER TO BEGIN WITH! BUT GIVEN THAT, IT IS IN WONDERFUL CONDITION. PLEASE NOTE THAT THE COVER IS INTACT , THERE ARE NO MARKS OR IMPERFECTIONS ANYWHERE IN THE BOOK, AND THE FOLD IN BACK COVER IS UNBLEMISHED.
IT IS HARD TO FIND EARLY EDITIONS SUCH AS THIS IN SUCH GOOD CONDITION. REMEMBER, IT IS ABOUT 49 YEARS OLD!
AS ALWAYS, I OFFER A MONEY BACK GUARANTEE, NO QUESTIONS ASKED, IF YOU ARE NOT COMPLETELY HAPPY. CHECK MY FEEDBACK. I PROVIDE THE SAME SERVICE I EXPECT WHEN I ADD TO MY OWN COLLECTION.
THANKS FOR LOOKING AND GOD BLESS.
