Mad #72
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Alfred's Poor Almanac," EC’s Mad #72 (1962) delivers a clever meta moment with a blank page bearing a memo from Bill Gaines to Al Feldstein, playfully demanding all the congratulatory letters Gaines "expects" to receive. The cover, a sharp and witty illustration by Kelly Freas, complements the issue’s sardonic tone with its distinctive style.
