I have a collection of Mad paperback books dating back to the 1960's and 1970's. All contain comic art throughout.


I can find some in the CPG data base but most of them do not seem to be listed here. I searched using the full book title. Then I tried shorting the title down bit by bit. Ending with just "Mad" or "Mad's".


I found a website listing the books and showing the variant printings of each. Looks like there may be a few hundred different books.


Would this be something you can add to the CPG data base?

Yes much of it is funny.

There seems to be a lot of variant printings.

I found a great website with lots of images and data. But even with all that organized data, it's confusing to identify which variant is which.

That's where CPG is such a great asset to have. Matching the picture to the correct variant and value is a great help.

I hope they list them, but I understand what you mean. The industry is making a shift towards more detailed listings everywhere. It's something I like to see.
