“Put*On”

In "Put*On," a 1971 Mad classic, a perpetually cheerful widow navigates a world where her mundane job, impossible finances, and relentless male admirers all collide in absurd, sitcom-style fashion. Written by Stan Hart and brought to life with sharp, expressive art by Angelo Torres, the story skewers mid-century domestic tropes with a wink and a grin. The cover, a vibrant parody of a classic TV show, is by Norman Mingo.
