in advertisements for other companies, this is the first time I have
seen this image used for this company. And its larger format makes it
extra desirable. Measuring approx. 7 ½” by 9 ⅞”,
this item shows considerable wear. There are creases throughout, and
pinholes at the corners. There’s a small piece missing from the
lower left-hand corner, and some of the creases have been reinforced

#44 - Swedish MAD Magazine 1964 #9 Beatles on The
Cover RARE MB $10
Here’s
a cool piece of foreign MAD Magazine memorabilia. Published in 1964
by AB Ahfeldt & Frank, this is issue #9 from the year 1964 of the
Swedish version of MAD Magazine (#29 overall). This issue contains
reprints from the US version of MAD Magazine, but there is also some
original content from Swedish artists and writers. This issue has
been well read, and is in VG condition, with surface, corner and edge
wear. This issue features the Beatles on the front cover (along with
Alfred E. Neuman as a Christmas Elf), and it just might be the most
sought-after issue of Swedish MAD Magazine, even more than the first,
#1 issue.
Lot
#45 - MAD Magazine Super RARE Export Edition #14
Late 1960’s MB $20
Here’s
a super rare piece of MAD Magazine memorabilia. Published in the
late 1960’s by Export Publications LTD., this item is issue #14
from the MAD Spanish Language (En Espanol) Export edition. This
edition of MAD Magazine is not a foreign edition per se, but is
rather a MAD Magazine that has been published in the USA, then
exported to Spanish-speaking countries (mainly Mexico). I have also
heard that this edition was also sold in the USA, but in cities with
large Hispanic populations, like New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles.
This is issue #14 in the series, and issues 13, 14, 15 and 16 are the
only issues that have been accounted for. There has been no evidence
or appearance of issues 1-12, or any issues after #16. This
particular issue has certainly seen better days, as it shows surface,
corner and edge wear, along with significant spine wear (with cover
splits at both the top and bottom of the spine). There is also a
small corner piece missing from the front cover, and a large ink
stain also appears on the front cover, which gradually bleeds into
the magazine about 5 pages. While not in the best condition, this
issue is one of the rarest “foreign” issues to find,
simply due to its scarcity. This issue is complete, but it is
fragile, and would be best stored bagged and boarded. Wow!
Lot

was sold and packaged with an Alfred E. Neuman action figure and was
never sold individually. This issue is in VG/F condition, with light
surface, corner and edge wear. There is also a light corner crease
on the front cover, and the front cover also shows remnants of a pink
price sticker. Here’s your chance to read the issue without
breaking open your action figure set.

#48 - MAD Magazine #24 First Magazine Sized Issue
1955 MB $50
Here’s
the one that started it all. Published in 1955 by E.C. Publications,
this is MAD Magazine #24, the first magazine sized issue of MAD
Magazine. The first twenty-three (23) issues of MAD were 10-cent
comic books, and it took three (3) years for MAD to convert to a
full-size humor magazine. While MAD #24 is not especially rare (they
can be found, but can be expensive), this issue is on the lower end
of the condition scale. This issue is complete, but shows surface,
corner and edge wear. There is a grease pencil mark on the front
cover (probably put there by the distributor), and there is a 1”
tear at the bottom of the front cover. The magazine also has a
little wave to it, which is prominent if you lay it flat. All in
all, this issue is a great value at the opening bid, so if you’re
looking for a less expensive issue that you can hold in your hands,
this is it.

Christmas Card. This card was sent by the Kings to the MAD Magazine
offices during the Christmas holiday of 1985. Apparently, they had
asked permission from MAD to reproduce the cover to MAD Magazine

There is one sticker missing from the outer ring, on the end. In

Here’s
a unique piece of MAD Magazine memorabilia. Probably produced in the
2000’s, this item is a prototype for a MAD Magazine musical
greeting card. This card contains a musical CD, which contains music
recorded especially for the recipient. It seems to me that this would
be a card given to a now ex-girlfriend, as the lyrics are a bit
raunchy: “Oh Darlin’ it’s sad how you’re
wantin’ be back, but all I can say is F+CK no!”, or, Ya’
drove me ta’ drink, so now you just drive me to the bar.”
Needless to say, this item was not approved. This item contains an

are printed on the back. In Excellent display condition. From the collection of an anonymous member of the UGOI.

Bags like this one were produced and distributed during the 2015
concert tour of Mr. Yankovic and were used to carry purchased

these were randomly inserted into packs of MAD Magazine Series I

address on the back of the card to redeem their prize, a “numbered,
limited edition, MAD Magazine promo sheet”. I would assume
most of these were redeemed when they were found (because, why not?),

still floating around. In any event, this card is unused, and in

Here's
a cool lot of MAD Magazine memorabilia. Produced in 2002 by
publisher, Ed Norris, this lot contains sixty-two (62) promotional
pinback buttons from the MAD Magazine fanzine, The MAD Panic. The MAD
Panic was a bi-monthly fanzine and was normally twelve (12) pages in
length. It covered a variety of topics in the world of MAD Magazine,
from recent MAD collectibles and early appearances of Alfred E.
Neuman, to MAD Magazine news bits and a MAD Magazine collectors
registry. Back in the early 2000’s, Mr. Norris had the bright
idea of producing a set of pinback buttons, with each one featuring a
different reproduced cover of the MAD Panic. He started selling them
in sets of three (with two different sets offered each issue),
beginning with Issue #62 (March 2001), and ending with Issue #71
(September 2002). This lot contains the complete set, with two (2)
bonus color pinbacks also included. Sadly, the MAD Panic folded
after Issue #71, so no further pinbacks were produced. Because of
this, some of the covers are missing, as Mr. Norris chose the covers
randomly. And each set was produced by the number of orders
received, so there were no extras made. These pins measure approx. 2
¼" in diameter, and are in Excellent display condition,
with light foxing and surface scratches on the back.

memorabilia collector revealed at least two other Japanese MAD
paperback books from the early 1970’s. In any case, this book
reprints selected cover art and interior pages from past issues of
MAD, then translates the words in the word balloons into Japanese

1970's MB $100
Here's
a cool piece of foreign MAD Magazine memorabilia. Produced in the
1970's for Stiko-Sweden, this is a Swedish Alfred E. Neuman ceramic
bust. This bust is very similar to the version that was sold in the

the original mold of the US version (or at least a one-off). It
stands approx. 5" tall, and the base is glazed a light brown
rather than gray. There is no felt on the bottom, as there was never
any felt to begin with. Overall, this bust is beautiful, and in
Excellent display condition, with light dirt marks on Alfred’s
face. Those could be easily washed away, however.

#209 - MAD Magazine / Alfred E. Neuman Bust Salt and Pepper
Shakers 1990’s MB $100
Here’s
a couple pieces of some cool (but unlicensed) MAD Magazine
memorabilia. Produced in the mid-1990's by a group out of the
Pacific Northwest, this is a pair of Alfred E. Neuman bust salt and
pepper shakers. The group who did these initially started by
reproducing a large Alfred E. Neuman bust. The reproduced bust was a
tad smaller than the original, was lighter in weight, and had red
felt on the bottom instead of green. After they sold a few of the
busts, they branched out and did a few pairs of these salt and pepper
shakers. After that, they made a table top butane lighter, and a
small table lamp, while still using the fake Alfred E. Neuman bust.
In any event, these S/P shakers are a very cool display item. They
measure approx. 5 3/8” tall, and both the top and bottom of the
busts are glazed (Alfred’s head is white, the bases are black
and grey). There is no felt on the bottom of either of these, rather
there are rubber stoppers on the bottom to fill them with actual salt
and pepper. The salt and pepper is then dispensed out of Alfred’s
eyes and nostrils. These appear to have never been used, and are in
Mint condition.

217 - Brazil MAD Magazine Bound Volume 1980’s
RARE MB $20
Here’s
a rare piece of foreign MAD Magazine memorabilia. Published in the
late 1980’s by Editora Record, this is a bound volume of four
(4) issues from the Brazil version of MAD Magazine. Like a few other
foreign MAD publishers, the folks at the Brazilian MAD took unsold
issues and repackaged them into four-issue bound volumes. They
simply added a new wraparound cover for the set. These issues are
complete issues, and also include the covers. This item is in decent
display condition, with surface, corner, and edge wear, and a small
piece missing near the upper right-hand corner of the front cover.
The issues inside are in Excellent display condition, with light
surface wear. Considering the temperature conditions in Brazil
(mainly heat and humidity), it’s surprising just how good of
condition this item is in.

by E.C. Publications, this is a MAD Magazine sell sheets. Items like

#223 - MAD Magazine #533 Weird Al Concert Tour Edition
Giveaway RARE MB $25
Here’s
a super cool (and rare) piece of MAD Magazine memorabilia. Published
in 2015 by E.C. Publications, this is a special free giveaway issue
of MAD Magazine. Featuring the musician, Weird Al Yankovic, on the
front cover, this is MAD Magazine issue #533. But what makes this
item special is that this particular issue was a free giveaway during
his 2015 US tour. All MAD Magazines that are sold over the counter
or at newsstands have a UPC barcode on the front cover, so that the
cashier can scan it and sell it. This issue does not have the UPC
barcode on the front cover. This item was included with the MAD /
Weird Al plastic bag (see Lot #99), in a collection of MAD Magazines
that I purchased two years ago. The middle photo shows two issues of
MAD #533 with their respective corners. One is a newsstand copy and

#224 - MAD Magazine / Lime Rock Unused Instant Winner Card
1993 MB $5
Here's
a cool piece of MAD Magazine memorabilia. Produced in 1993 by Lime
Rock International, this item is an unused “Instant Winner”
card from the MAD Magazine Series II trading card set. Cards like
these were randomly inserted into packs of MAD Magazine Series II
trading cards and the winner would then fill out their mailing
address on the back of the card to redeem their prize, a “numbered,
limited edition, MAD Magazine press sheet”. I would assume
most of these were redeemed when they were found (because, why not?),
but there could also be more of these out there, considering the
amount of still-factory sealed boxes of MAD Magazine Series II cards
still floating around. In any event, this card is unused, and in
Near Mint condition, with just a hint of storage and handling wear.

#225 - MAD Magazine / Alfred E. Neuman 45 RPM Record
Radio Station Promo MB $35
Here's
a rare piece of MAD Magazine memorabilia. Produced in 1959 by ABC
Paramount, this is a MAD Magazine 45 rpm record. Originally, this
record was sold with a full color picture sleeve with artwork by Don
Martin. But this is a rarer version of that record, as it is a white
label promotional copy that was given away to radio DJ's. The two
songs, Potrzebie & What - Me Worry, were allegedly recorded by
Alfred E. Neuman and his Furshluginner Five, although I'm sure it was
just a typical 1950's house band that did the job. I have not played
this record, so I do not know how it sounds. But it is in Excellent
display condition, with a paper sticker on each side of the record.

large display boards and fourteen (14) word balloons from a store
window advertising campaign, which occurred in the Spring / Summer of
2012 at the Little Read (Red) Book shop in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin. I
was alerted to this collection in the Fall of 2012, just after the
store removed these pieces from their windows. I inquired about them
and purchased the collection for $100 (the opening bid). I brought
them home, and determined they were just too damned big to display
all together. So, I packed them up and they haven’t seen the
light of day since. The boards range in size from 12” by 13 ¼"
(smallest) to 23 ¾" by 42 ¼" (largest). All
but two have a measurement exceeding 24” at some point. There
are fourteen (14) word balloons as well. Eight (8) have been removed
from their appropriate board, while the other six (6) are still
attached. They are simply attached with clear tape on the back. The
graphics are enlarged reprints of MAD Magazine’s “Jaws”
parody, and feature caricatures of Richard Dreyfuss, Roy Scheider,
and Robert Shaw. All of the pieces are a little dusty, but are in
Excellent display condition. An additional shipping fee will be
added to your invoice for this collection, but rates vary to
different parts of the country. I will say anywhere between $50-$80.
