Entertaining just as I remembered 36 years ago.5
Entertaining just as I remembered 36 years ago.

Perfect for any 14 year old boy.

A Well Done Reissue!5
I bought this book back in 4th grade, 1979. Bob Clarke dominates this book with Wallace Wood in a great collection a MAD spoofs. Some really great early Don Martin works, and a first from "Lighter Side's" Dave Berg in "How To Wage Peace". I was so glad to see they've reissued this one as I haven't seen my own copy in 20 years. Very entertaining with a great introduction from Grant Geissman. This reissue should last many years as the book was made durable. Well worth the price. MAD needs to continue reissuing ALL of their paperbacks!! We damand it!
