When it first appeared on newsstands in 1952, no one could have known the scope of its eventual success - least of all the men who brought it into existence. It was just another 10-cent comic book, one of hundreds of titles that crowded the country's shelves and vied for the attention of a fickle and mercurial audience. It was called MAD, and it promised "Humor in a Jugular Vein." Hardcover, Cover price $49.99.
