I remember that. Was it 1968 or ‘69? Definitely late 60s.

I think I have some in my basement somewhere but I am not going to go search right now. I will look and if I find something I will let this comment be my bookmark.
The Sam Pebbles; March, 1968.
“Main steam stop valve.” “Men stem stop wow.”
There was a boxed set of 6 CDs put out (in the 1990s?) that collected every issue up to that point. I’m not sure if it remained on the market though because there was some controversy that (unlike the reprint collections in books, magazines, and paperbacks) the artists/writers weren’t being paid.
I have it but I don’t like reading magazines as pdfs (I have a number of collected publications this way). The pages are never legible at full view and I find the interface (at least with some of these magazines) to be clunky to slide the page around to read everything.

Please advise.
I’m continually impressed with the breadth of uses for Free Republic. The odd computer questions, job requests, and recipes are to be expected on any public forum, and you do find them here, sprinkled about. But I’m puzzled why you would go to one of the preeminent conservative political websites of the web to ask about a forty-six year old issue of Mad magazine?
No, it's hilarious. Next to Rockwell's little parody of modern art, this was the absolute all time best one I've ever seen...and it was merely a margin drawing in Mad.
Outrageously funny.
Beowulf9,
A few years ago I stumbled upon a box set of
Absolutely Mad,
53 years of Mad Magazine on dvd.
Political satire at its best.
