If you’re a Boomer, you probably remember Mad magazine. I’m not sure exactly when I started reading Mad, or when I stopped, but I sure do remember a lot of the issues pictured at Doug Gilford’s Mad Cover Site. When I was a kid, I bought lots of the paperback compilations so I could catch up on the ones that were published when I was too young to read.
Jon Stewart probably owes his job to Mad.

I discovered an interesting truism about Mad magazine– everybody who read it, no matter how old they are, sincerely believes Mad’s Golden Age was the same years they were 10-12 years old.
