The Cartoon Art Museum in San Francisco will soon be hosting a rare exhibit of MAD Magazine art according to news posted on Tom Richmond’s.
Andrew Farago, the curator for the museum writes:
Love MAD? Our next exhibition is going to be the greatest collection of MAD art ever assembled, going all the way back to MAD #1. Kurtzman covers! Elder splash pages! Aragones! Berg! Richmond! Viviano! Mingo! Drucker! Davis! Jaffee! Martin! Get yourself to San Francisco between April and September, or kick yourself later!
Whoooo hooo! For myself and all my caricaturist and cartoonist friends, this is a dream come true! I will share this with everyone I know on Facebook and Twitter – great news!
It will be worth the trip just to see the original cover art from MAD #3 and #4 side by side….with a couple of splash pages from issues #2 and #4… I’ll post a rundown soon! It might be the best lineup of art I’ve gathered in my ten years here.
You will learn someday that being half human, makes you stronger than a god.
