You really should check out Dick Hanchette's Mad Site. Dick has put together an excellent resource for collectors interested in all things Mad. Dick is also the reason you looked at The Mad Cover Site for over a decade. He gave it a very comfortable home from July 1998 to the end of 2009. Dick has also put together sections on the following: MAD SPECIAL COVERS PAPERBACK COVERS BIG BOOKS Valuable resources all! Drop everything and visit Mike Slaubaugh's wonderful Mad Magazine Lists site.

Scott Gosar has been selling Mad Magazines and lots of other humor publications for many years. He's definitely worth checking out if you're struggling in your search. He's also a wealth of information if a certain thing you thought you saw 20 years ago is keeping you up nights. Visit his site and tell him Doug sent you! |
Jim Bumgardner developed a fun way to look at covers on this site with his "image browsing interface." 459 regular issues sit in an organized mess on your screen. When you roll your mouse over a cover, a bigger image of that cover swirls up from the pile. Adjust your screen resolution for the best effect. Can you see Alfred amongst the magazines? |

Communicate with all kinds of Mad types at www.madmumblings.com Mike from magazineart.org has a wealth of information on vintage magazine cover and advertising art from the golden age of American illustration. He sent me this: "Have you looked at our section of Humor magazines lately? People need to know where MAD came from; you should put in a direct link somewhere in your discussion, say to LIFE, the Humor Magazine currently at 457 issues, for example." Man, what a history lesson. He and his volunteers are as Mad as me, doing this stuff because they like to. Hi Doug: I wanted to let you know that we've launched the vintage magazine pages on The Collectors Weekly: http://www.collectorsweekly.com/category/magazines.php and we've included your Mad Magazine Cover Collection site as a great reference resource. Take a look and let me know what you think... any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Maribeth Keane Associate Editor The Collectors Weekly P.S. If you felt like giving us a link back to Collectors Weekly somewhere on your site, we'd really appreciate it...
Hi Doug, I've updated your link, you can check it out in Vintage Magazines. I just got my box of childhood MAD mags sent to me from my mother's garage last week. I don't know if I have a favorite cover in the batch, but I do really enjoy #210, on which Alfred is mowing the bar code with a lawnmower. It's very pop art in spirit, to take a non-art element and incorporate it into the art. If you can include a CollectibleDetective shout-out on your links page we really appreciate it! Thanks for stopping by! Susan Clarke www.CollectibleDetective.com The Largest Vintage and Antique Guide on the Web Al Feldstein, retired, former MAD Magazine's Editor,
and E.C. Comics' artist/writer, is now a fine artist of western, landscape,
wildlife, fantasy & sci-fi art. www.alfeldstein.com
A pair of links I highly recommend: MadTrash.com and MadMag.de.
Tim has a nice page of labels used for various Mad Magazine record releases in the 50's and 60's. Doug, I am Bret Rugg and run a site GlobalMAD.com. It's been up since 2000. It is a forum for the discussion of MAD - globally. I am specifically interested in how MAD blends or clashes with the various local cultures. Also has a display for covers of regular issues from all countries where MAD is published. My collection is almost complete. Check it out and let's swap links. |

I found the Mad parody of Valley of the Dolls and thought I'd email it to you. Maybe you can put it on your Mad website. Regards, Tim |
| This incredibly detailed site features Mad's "Ferris Beuller's Day Off" parody. |

Dear Mr. Gilford, I love your site!! My name is Leah and I run a Star Wars site that houses references to the films (the largest of its kind in the world). I was wondering if I could download covers from the following: raiders, temple of doom, last crusade, star wars, empire, return of the jedi, phantom menace and attack of the clones? I would be glad to give you credit and make links to your site. Here is a link to my site so you know what it is: http://www.nerf-herders-anonymous.net Thank you very much for your time and consideration, Leah |

This is Arie Kaplan. I'm a writer for MAD, and I was wondering if you could link to my site at www.ariekaplan.com and I'll link to yours. Hi, Doug. I have a large site about the German edition of MAD Magazine, including lots of cover pictures, a buyers and sellers - department and information about the issues, specials, collectibles and the history of the magazine. I'd be very pleased, if you put a link to DEUTSCHES MAD ONLINE (http://mad-online.home.pages.de/) on your pages. Thanks a lot. Sincerely, Mario "E." Mueller Just a quick note to let you know how much I enjoy your site - I'm a big Mad Magazine fan from waaaaaay back, and I love the old covers, especially those by the great Harvey Kurtzman.
