Al Jaffee, Inventive Cartoonist at Mad Magazine, Dies at 102

For 55 years he created the fold-in (as opposed to, say, Playboy’s fold-out), giving readers a satirical double-take on whatever was going on in the news.

Longest running career as a comic artist, according to Guinness.
Rest in peace, Al. Thanks for the laughs!

He was a legend.

I still have a bunch of the original Mad Magazine comics and paperback books of the 1960s.

Howling Mad
Fighting Mad
Boiling Mad
Good 'n Mad
The Mad Adventures of Captain Klutz

The stuff was priceless.
