SESSION ONE - FRIDAY, OCTOBER 28 --- LOTS 1 THROUGH 50


Lot #1. Completely MAD Paperback Boxed Set (Blue/Gold Version) - MB $30

This is a cool collection of MAD Magazine paperback books. Published in the 1960's by Signet, this is a boxed set of eight (8) different MAD Magazine pocket books. The titles included in this set are: The Bedside MAD, Greasy MAD Stuff, Like MAD, Three Ring MAD, The Ides Of MAD, The Self-Made MAD, The Organization MAD, and The MAD Sampler. All of the books are original to the box, and it appears that just one has been removed and enjoyed (The Bedside MAD). The other books appear to have never been opened. All of the books are later printings, but they are in outstanding condition. The display box shows surface, corner and edge wear, but is very displayable.

Price realized: $79


Lot #2. The MAD Morality / What, Me Moral? Promotional Pinback Button - MB $100

This is a super rare piece of MAD Magazine memorabilia. Produced in 1970 by Signet Books, this is a promotional pinback button from the MAD Magazine inspired book, The MAD Morality. This button was produced without the consent of MAD Magazine publisher Bill Gaines, and when he discovered the existence of the buttons, he forced the publisher to destroy them. But, that was after a small few were already given away. This is one of the lucky survivors. Measuring approx. 1 1/2" in diameter, this item is in Excellent display condition, with light rust stains on the back, and a bent stick pin. A Mint condition example of this button sold in one of my 1998 MAD Magazine auctions for over $2500! While I don't see this going for that much, it certainly is worth far more than the paltry $100 opening bid.

Price realized: $152


Lot #3. MAD Magazine Office Premium Tote Bag (Blue Version) - MB $20

This is a rare MAD Magazine canvas tote bag. This bag was made expressly for the artists, writers and staff of MAD Magazine in the early 1990's, and is one of two (2) different styles of bag produced. The other bag is black, and is more taller than wider. The MAD logo is silk-screened on, and the logo is nice and bright on each side. This particular bag was owned by the late MAD Magazine artist Bob Clarke, and each side shows some white paint drop stains. The bag is still solid and sturdy, but could probably use a washing. Perhaps a good bath in a sink full of Woolite would be best.

Price realized: $47


Lot #4. MAD Magazine Marbles - MB $5

This is a cool piece of "fantasy" MAD Magazine memorabilia. Produced in the 2000's, this item features an unauthorized use of the face of Alfred E. Neuman, and the MAD logo. This bag of marbles was created during the "create your own collectible" craze of the early 2000's, and is one of the better pieces of unauthorized MAD Magazine collectibles. The marbles included in the package are simply some generic marbles, although it would have been very cool to have the face of Alfred E. Neuman on each marble. The header card is in Excellent display condition, and is bright and colorful, with no fading.

Price realized: $77


Lot #5. 1980's MAD Magazine / Alfred E. Neuman Sweatshirt - MB $25

This is a MAD Magazine / Alfred E. Neuman sweatshirt. Manufactured in the late 1980's by Sun Sportswear, this long-sleeved sweatshirt features Alfred E. Neuman in his classic pose on the front. It is an Adult size Extra-Large (XL), and is unused. In fact, it still has the original K-Mart price tag attached to the size label at the neck. There is a tiny dirt stain near the neckline, but that is the only flaw. You will probably never see another one of these in such a wonderful condition, so don't miss out!

Price realized: No Bid


Lot #6. MAD Magazine / Alfred E. Neuman Plastic Bookends Set (Gold Version) - MB $10

This is a set of the gold version of MAD Magazine bookends. These bookends were originally shrink-wrapped around a collection of MAD paperback books, and a paper bookmark was also included. Using these bookmarks was a genius idea by MAD to sell their unsold MAD paperbacks, as MAD could choose any titles they wanted, instead of printing the titles on a box or paper sleeve. This set of MAD bookends is known as the "Gold" version, as the bookends are gold in color with blue printing. A different colored "Red" set was also produced, and that set had gold lettering. Also rumored to exist was a "Green" set, but in my almost 30 years of collecting MAD Magazine memorabilia, I have never seen any example of that set. This set appears to be unused, and in Near Mint condition.

Price realized: $26


Lot #7. MAD Magazine / Alfred E. Neuman Necktie - MB $10

This is a MAD Magazine / Alfred E. Neuman necktie. Produced in 1992 by the Canadian company, Watson Brothers, this necktie is just one of several MAD Magazine neckties produced by Watson Brothers. This particular necktie borrows the art from MAD Magazine #117, and features Alfred E. Neuman flying over the goalpost while holding a football. This necktie is made with 100% silk, and appears to be unused. It is in Excellent display condition.

Price realized: $21


Lot #8. Pre-MAD Magazine / Alfred E. Neuman Matchbook - MB $15

This is a cool piece of pre-MAD Magazine memorabilia. Produced in the 1930's or 1940's by the Diamond Match Company, this item is a book of matches from Ralphs's Buffet, a restaurant in Prescott, Arizona. But, the cool thing about this book of matches is that it features an early, pre-MAD image of MAD Magazine's Alfred E. Neuman on the back. This book of matches has been used, and about half of the matches are missing. But, who really cares about how many matches are still in the book? The image of Alfred is beautiful, and this is a really cool (and really rare) piece of pre-MAD memorabilia.

Price realized: $26


Lot #9. MAD Magazine / Alfred E. Neuman Pendant w/ Original Display Box - MB $15

This is a cool piece of MAD Magazine memorabilia. Produced in 1993, this item is a MAD Magazine / Alfred E. Neuman pendant. This item was sold exclusively in the once popular Warner Brothers Studio Stores. In fact, this item was just one piece of a treasure trove of MAD Magazine collectibles offered for sale at the Warner Brothers stores. Other items included a denim jacket, a sweatshirt, Dave Berg art plaques, cocktail napkins, a puzzle, and many other items. This particular item is unused, and still comes with its original display/storage box. And, the MAD Magazine logo shows prominently on the box lid.

Price realized: $52


Lot #10. MAD Magazine / Stanley DeSantis Catalog - Order Form - MB $10

This is a sales order form from clothing manufacturer, Stanley DeSantis. Back in the early 1990's, Stanley DeSantis produced a line of MAD Magazine t-shirts and hats. There were several different styles of t-shirts, and different colors for each style also were produced. There was only one style of hat produced, and is featured a silk-screened image of Alfred E. Neuman on the front. The book, Collectibly MAD, indicates that Stanley DeSantis also produced a line of MAD Magazine sweatshirts, but I have never come across one, nor does this order form show any options for ordering a sweatshirt. This item is very cool, as it shows all of the styles of MAD t-shirts that were offered for sale.

Price realized: $37


Lot #11. Bill Gaines / Comic Book Legal Defense Fund T-Shirt - MB $10

This item is a cool t-shirt, featuring the image of the founder of MAD Magazine, Mr. William M. (Bill) Gaines. Mr. Gaines always fought against censorship, and his feelings about free speech were very strong, particularly since his popular line of comic books was eradicated by the Comics Code of the 1950's. This shirt was offered for sale at the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund table at the 2013 San Diego Comic Con, and this particular shirt is unused, and in Mint condition. It is an Adult size XL.

Price realized: No Bid


Lot #12. The Highly Unlikely Celebrity Cookbook - Mort Drucker / Frank Jacobs - MB $10

This is an obscure MAD Magazine-related paperback book. Published in 1964 by the New American Library, this item is a First Printing of "The Highly Unlikely Celebrity Cookbook". While not technically a MAD Magazine book, this book was written by MAD Magazine writer, Frank Jacobs, and illustrated by MAD Magazine artist, Mort Drucker. This book showcases some of Mr. Druckers early caricature work, while the humorous wit from the hand of Mr. Jacobs shines brightly. This book is complete, and is in VG condition. It would grade higher, but there is substantial edge and paper browning, along with some writing on the front cover.

Price realized: $92


Lot #13. MAD Magazine / MAD TV Promotional T-Shirt - MB $20

This is a very rare piece of MAD TV memorabilia. Produced in the mid-1990's, this item is a promotional t-shirt from Michael Burnett Productions, the make-up and effects artists for MAD TV. This shirt features an image of Alfred E. Neuman on the back of the shirt, and the "What, MBP Worry?" logo is located on the left breast on the front. This shirt is an Adult size Extra Large (XL), and is unused, and in Mint condition.

Price realized: $155


Lot #14. Fred Alan Novelty Company Advertising Poster w/ What- Me Worry? - MB $10

This is a cool piece of MAD Magazine memorabilia. Produced in the 1950's, this item is an advertising poster for the Fred Alan Novelty Company. What makes this item special is that it borrows the popular "What - Me Worry?" logo from MAD Magazine. Typically, other companies would borrow the facial image of Alfred E. Neuman for use in their advertisements, and MAD would always send a "cease and desist" notice to the offending company. But, this was the first time that a company borrowed the "What - Me Worry" saying. While the actual words "What", "Me", and "Worry", are not trademarked, those same words in that particular font style is. And, that is what MAD got upset about. So, they sued the Fred Alan Company, and ordered the remaining posters destroyed. This poster is the actual poster MAD used in its litigations against the company, and comes from the collection of the former Associate Editor of MAD Magazine, Mr. Jerry DeFuccio. It measures approx. 7 1/2" by 17 1/2", and is in Excellent display condition. The picture of Alfred E. Neuman (partially shown in the third picture) is used for comparison only, and is not included.

Price realized: $130


Lot #15. German MAD Magazine Record Album "Wie Es Tohnt & Stohnt" - MB $15

This is a cool piece of foreign MAD Magazine memorabilia. Produced in 1981 by RCA Victor, this is a German MAD Magazine 33 1/3 rpm record album. Entitled, "Wie Es Tohnt & Stohnt", the album title is loosely translated to "As it Sounds And Moans", and contains such hits like, "Bauernregel fur den August", "Kurzweil auf der Autofahrt", "Diesmal fur Ochsen", and "Achtung Autofahrer!". The outer sleeve of the album is in Excellent display condition, with bright colors and no fading. The back of the sleeve features color artwork by Don Martin.

Price realized: $42


Lot #16. Toxic Lunchbox Promotional T-Shirt w/ Alfred E. Neuman - MB $20

This item is a t-shirt featuring the use of Alfred E. Neuman. Toxic Lunchbox was the Twitter account for the website TALKSIK.com, the "Million Dollar Mouthpiece Kept For The Hungry Individual". I am not sure what the connection is to Alfred E. Neuman or MAD Magazine, but they borrowed Alfred's likeness for their t-shirt. This shirt appears to be unused, and is in Excellent display condition.

Price realized: $130


Lot #17. 1928 Colorado College Yearbook w/ pre-MAD Images Of Alfred E. Neuman - MB $25

This is a very cool (and super rare) piece of pre-MAD Magazine memorabilia. Published in 1928 by Colorado College, this item is the 1928 version of the "Pikes Peak Nugget", their annual yearbook. While it is cool to look at the pages of history, from classes and faculty, to sports and activities, the real treasure of this book is the numerous appearances of Alfred E. Neuman in the advertising section. This is the earliest example known of an annual yearbook with images of Alfred E. Neuman, and the pre-MAD images of Alfred appear over fifteen (15) times! This item is complete, and is in decent display condition, with edge, corner and spine wear.

Price realized: $305


Lot #18. 1960's The MAD Show "ECCH" Pinback Button - Happy Medium Theater - MB $20

This is a promotional pinback button from the Chicago company of The MAD Show, a popular off-Broadway smash hit musical. This particular button was produced as a giveaway to theater-goers at the Happy Medium theater, where the Chicago version of the MAD Show was being shown. One of the scenes from Act One was called, "ECCCH", and this pinback was produced in tribute to that scene. But, it was discovered that the word "ECCH" was misspelled, and was missing a letter "C". Ultimately, these pinbacks were disposed of after the discovery of the spelling error, although a few were saved by a cast member. The cast member was more than happy to consign one of her pinback buttons to my auction.

Price realized: $330


Lot #19. MAD Magazine / "What - Me Thirsty?" T-shirt - MB $20

This is a cool piece of MAD Magazine memorabilia. Produced in 1987 by CIA, this item is a MAD Magazine t-shirt. The graphic on the shirt is taken from the cover art to MAD Magazine issue #42, and features the head of Alfred E. Neuman as a cork bottle topper. This t-shirt is in Excellent display condition, with bright colors and no fading. It is an Adult size Medium, and is made from a thinner, more lightweight fabric.

Price realized: $37


Lot #20. MAD Magazine / Alfred E. Neuman Necktie - MB $10

This is a MAD Magazine / Alfred E. Neuman necktie. Produced in 1992 by the Canadian company, Watson Brothers, this necktie is just one of several MAD Magazine neckties produced by Watson Brothers. This particular necktie borrows the art from MAD Magazine #308, and features Alfred E. Neuman holding a TV camera. This necktie is made with 100% silk, and appears to be unused. It is in Excellent display condition.

Price realized: $13


Lot #21. MAD Magazine Paperback Book Original Art Page / Jack Davis Art - MB $50

This is a cool piece of MAD Magazine original art. Produced in 1970 by MAD Magazine artist, Jack Davis, this is a page of original art from "The Return Of A MAD Look At Old Movies" paperback book. This page of art comes from the story, "Life Dinghy", and is page 6 from that story. It is also numbered page 40 from the book. Due to the recent passing of Mr. Davis, his original art has seen an increase in prices. While certainly not as desirable as the original cover art to a TV Guide, or the cover art to a Six Fat Dutchmen record album, this art certainly shows the skills and abilities of one of America's most popular comic artists and illustrators. Measuring approx. 11" by 14", this art is in Excellent display condition.

Price realized: $140


Lot #22. A Certifiably MAD Collection Paperback Boxed Set - Green Version - MB

This is a cool collection of MAD Magazine paperback books. Published in the 1970's by Warner Books, this is a boxed set of five (5) different MAD Magazine pocket books. The titles included in this set are: A MAD Guide To Leisure Time, Al Jaffee's MAD Book Of Magic And Other Dirty Tricks, Good n' MAD, Steaming MAD, and MADs Dave Berg Looks At Things. All of the books are original to the box, and it appears that the books have been opened just once or twice. All of the books are later printings, but they are in outstanding condition. The display box shows surface, corner and edge wear, but is very displayable.

Price realized: No Bid

Price realized: $315

This is a cool piece of MAD Magazine memorabilia. Produced in 1974 by United Artists Music & Records Group Inc., this is a 33 1/3 rpm record album by the rock group, MAN. This album cover is important to MAD Magazine memorabilia collectors, as the group borrowed the MAD Magazine logo font for their name on the album sleeve, and also used the mouth (pictured) of Alfred E. Neuman on the album cover. This final version was originally the group's second choice for the album cover. The first choice was a complete face and body of Alfred E. Neuman, a choice that was emphatically denied by MAD's lawyers. This album cover is in decent display condition, with surface, corner and edge wear.

Neuman action figure, plus the Black and White Spy action figures. But the most valuable item in this boxed set isn't any of the action figures. It is the "50 Years Of Stupidity" special edition of MAD that is included in the back of the box. For some reason, that is the hardest MAD Magazine special edition issue to find. Maybe it's because of poor distribution. Maybe it's because nobody wants to break up their set, or even open the box up. In any event, this box has it. This set is unopened, and it is assumed the contents are in Mint condition. The box shows alot of handling wear.

But was makes this item a treasure is the appearance of Alfred E. Neuman on the label. I'm not sure if this is pre-MAD (pre 1955) or post-MAD (after 1955), but it sure is cool! There is still lotion in the bottle, but I am not sure if it has ever been opened. It stands about 5" tall, and is in Excellent display condition.

Lot #93 MAD Magazine / Al Jaffee American Flag T-Shirt 9/11 Tribute MB $10

This is an extremely hard to find Al Jaffee t-shirt. Produced in 2002 by Al Jaffee, this t-shirt shows an image of the American flag. But, upon closer inspection, the red strips of the flag are actually the words to the Pledge Of Allegiance. The print run of these t-shirts was very small, and not many people own one/ This particular shirt is an Adult size Large, and is in decent display condition. This shirt has been washed and worn several times, but still maintains its shape and colors quite nicely.

Lot #99 1960's British "Lord Sega" Slot Machine Door w/ Alfred E. Neuman On Glass MB $25

This is a cool piece of Alfred E. Neuman memorabilia. Produced in the 1960's by SEGA, this item is the metal door from a 1960's "Lord Sega" slot machine. What's unique about this item is that it features an Alfred E. Neuman image on the glass panel on the door. It is assumed that Alfred's face also appeared on the reel strips of this machine, but I don't know for sure. In any event, this item is different than the other 1960's slot machines with Alfred E. Neuman on them, and this is the first time I have seen this version of the face.

Lot #100 Sergio Aragones Original Art - A MAD Look At The US Space Effort - Unused Art MB $250

This is a piece of original art from Sergio Aragones' first ever submission to MAD. This art is an unused panel from "A MAD Look At the US Space Effort". It was determined that this panel was too similar to other panels that were used, so it was omitted. It was filed away and forgotten about, until I purchased a collection of MAD Magazine memorabilia from the Estate of Jerry DeFuccio. This item was languishing in a manila folder, along with a few signed letters and correspondence from Mr. Aragones to Mr. DeFuccio. This rarity measures approx. 8 1/2" by 11", and is signed and dated by Mr. Aragones at the lower right hand corner of the art. This item is black pen/ink on 3-ring binder paper. Mr. Aragones has acknowledged keeping his first few submissions to MAD in a 3-ring binder, as that was all he had to protect them. Aragones art is very popular these days, but to get an original from his FIRST EVER piece he drew for MAD would the centerpiece of your MAD Magazine original art collection.
