It's one of my favorite covers, a classic of the form and I find that it is a miracle and a cause for celebration that it still exists. You are a lucky AKA.

An awesome cover that is the cornerstone to any collection and is even more meaningful by the way you received it. Congratulations and I'm glad its found its way to a well deserving home in the hands of a true fan!

If there were one Mad cover I would ever want it would be this one! I keep coming back over and over to stare at it! I'm adoptable if your father's interested! LOL

An early Mad cover. if you only owned this one piece of art, you would have a fantastic "collection".

My favorite MAD Comics cover! And how you got it might be the best comic art acquisition backstory I've ever read, too.
