Who can forget Al Jaffee's fold in's?
Some issues were meh...
Other issues were really fantastic.
They were a part of my teen years on Jamaican bookshelves as I spent the money my dad gave me for lunch on each month's MAD magazine.
Then as I moved to the USA back in the early nineties, they were still there, a bit harder to find, until it was rare to see them on the shelves anymore and you had to go to specific street-side magazine stands in NYC.
Good to know Al is still out there!
- JacobAldridge 6y agoFor my 8th birthday I was gifted about $30 total from a few relatives, juuust enough (iirc) to buy an annual subscription to MAD Magazine. My mother talked me out of it (or basically told me I wasn’t allowed). One of the very few regrets in my life. In due course, I’m very keen to teach my (toddler) daughter about money etc - but not at the expense of blowing some cash on childhood frivolities (especially ones that give joy for a whole year).
