(30) 1963 Mad Magazine 30-Issue Slipcase Collection - An expansive 30-issue run of mid-century satirical history from E.C. Publications, this bulk lot includes an impressive range of classic issues housed inside a scarce, original textured blue and gold-embossed ”Mad Magazine Vol. 19” official storage slipcase. Spanning primarily across the 1960s silver age era, the extensive assembly features highly sought-after issues including No. 80, No. 92, No. 93, No. 94, No. 101, No. 102, No. 103, No. 104, No. 108, No. 109, No. 110, No. 114, No. 115, No. 116, No. 119, No. 120, No. 121, No. 122, No. 125, No. 126, No. 129, No. 130, No. 133, No. 216, No. 228, and several others mixed throughout the chronological filing box. The collection spotlights iconic cover appearances by the legendary mascot Alfred E. Neuman, parodying major cultural and historical milestones from the King Kong cinematic era to the Space Race, alongside classic internal contributions from the magazine's usual gang of idiots. Offered entirely raw and unrated, the magazines exhibit varying degrees of authentic age-appropriate handling wear, superficial corner creases, spine roll, and expected newsprint tanning, with No. 111 specifically showing its front cover detached from the staples. The structural blue cardboard library box displays minor corner bumping and edge scuffing but remains completely solid, safely keeping the dense stacked alignment of vintage publications beautifully grouped.
