Here's a hard to find collection of MAD Magazine paperback books. Published in 2002, 2003, and 2004 by I-Books, this is the complete set of eleven (11) MAD Magazine "Anniversary Edition" paperback books. These books are complete reprints of the first eleven MAD paperback books (The MAD Reader, MAD Strikes Back, Inside MAD, Utterly MAD, The Brothers MAD, The Bedside MAD, Son Of MAD, The Organization MAD, Like MAD, The Ides Of MAD, and Fighting MAD), which were published by Ballantine Books and Signet Books in the 1950's and early 1960's.

Here's a cool piece of signed MAD Magazine memorabilia. Published in 1992 by Little, Brown & Company, this is a first printing hardcover edition of the MAD Magazine book, Completely MAD. Completely MAD is billed as "A History of the Comic Book and Magazine", and it surely does not disappoint, as it takes a look at MAD Magazine from its humble beginnings as a 10-cent comic book all the way through its deserved place in popular culture. This particular book has also been signed by MAD Magazines founder, William M. (Bill) Gaines, on the inside third page. This book appears to be read just once or twice, and is in Excellent display condition. The outer dust jacket does show some storage and handling wear, however.

Lot #4 - MAD Magazine Coffee Mug "I'm MAD About Dad" Fathers Day Promo? MB $100

Here's an ultra-rare piece of MAD Magazine memorabilia. Produced in 1997 for E.C. Publications, this is a MAD Magazine coffee mug. This item was consigned to this auction by the former MAD Magazine editor, John Ficarra, who recalls that this mug was part of a Fathers Day promotion back in the late 1990's. I, for one, never saw or heard anything about these mugs being offered for sale, but that's not to say they weren't. These have a Spencer Gifts feel to them, so maybe they were sold in those stores with the existing MAD Magazine merchandise already available? Who knows? This is the first (and only) example of this mug that I have seen, and it is in Mint condition. The opening bid reflects the rarity of this item. From the collection of John Ficarra.

This particular item is one of a few that were given to the staff of MAD by the creator, who hoped that MAD would license it for sale.

Here's a cool early piece of Alfred E. Neuman memorabilia. Probably produced in the 1920's by The Strobridge Litho Co., this is a sticker with an early likeness of MAD Magazine's Alfred E. Neuman on the front. The words, "America And Peace" are printed at the top of the sticker, with the words, "I'm For Both!" appearing at the bottom.

Produced in 1994 by E.C. Publications, this item is a commemorative MAD Magazine coffee mug. This mug was produced for the employees of DC Comics who weren't invited to the 1993 MAD Christmas Party.

So, in place of a Christmas party, a special Valentine's Day party was held instead. The date of the party on the mug is listed as February 9, 1994, but due to inclement weather, the party was cancelled and rescheduled at a later date. This mug is only one of about 100 produced, and is quite rare. It appears to be unused, and is in Near Mint condition, with light storage wear.

(Bill) Gaines, the founder and publisher of MAD Magazine. Mr. Williams created this image of a whimpering Alfred E. Neuman on the morning of Mr. Gaines' death, but ultimately, this image was not chosen. Instead, a smiling Alfred E. Neuman (with a tear in his eye) appeared in the June 10, 1992 edition of the New York Times. I've heard that this is the image the family wanted to run, but I cannot confirm that. This item measures approx. 8 1/2" by 11", and is in decent display condition, with several creases, some light staining, and heavy handling wear.

Lot #164 - MAD Magazine / Alfred E. Neuman FUNKO Pop! Vinyl Doll Sealed MB $10

Here's a brand new piece of MAD Magazine memorabilia. Produced in 2020 by FUNKO, this is the Alfred E. Neuman version of the popular Funko Pop! vinyl dolls. I don't understand the mystique surrounding the Funko Pop! dolls, and I am not really a fan. Yes, the doll shows Alfred E. Neuman in his classic, "What - Me Worry" pose. And, the clothing and the hair is identical to what Alfred E. Neuman wears. But it's the eyes that I'm not a fan of. Just two, big, black dots. But, that's what every character Funko Pop! doll has, and apparently, that's what the collectors of these dolls enjoy. So, here it is. For just $10 (cheaper than retail). Please bid and get this out of my house. Please and Thank You!
