☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Story Behind the Cover," Mad #38 (1958) dives into the fan mail sparked by issue #37’s iconic Winsten ad, featuring the MAD staff in costume. Written by Albert B. Feldstein, Robert Foster, and John Cruz, the issue presents letters from readers including real names like J. Edgar Hoover and Dan Duryea, with a playful nod to the artists behind the cover—Norman Mingo and J. Fred Muggs—whose work helped bring the satire to life.
