Date Sold 3/1/2018Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Unfolded Canadian Special Poster (measures 24" x 36" [61 x 91 cm]) (Learn More) Mad, the classic humor magazine ("Humor in a jugular vein") from the 1950s to the present. It was originally a comic book published by Bill Gaines, but edited by Harvey Kurtzman, and it was one of the famous EC Comics (E.C. Comics) that were banned in the mid-1950s, due to excessive horror content. At that point, publisher Gaines turned it into a magazine with its 24th issue, and he and Kurtzman soon had a falling out, and Al Feldstein, who had been Gaines' writing partner on the Mad comic books, took over, and the magazine became one of the great success stories of the 1950s and 1960s (led by its trademark character, Alfred E. Neuman, a goofy looking guy whose slogan was "What, me worry?"), with a circulation in the millions at its peak. He never allowed any advertising of any kind in the magazine! In recent years, there was a "Mad" TV show which perfectly captures the spirit of the magazine! If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: very good. The poster has minor fold and border wear. It is otherwise in pretty nice condition and it displays well! Learn More about condition grades
