MAD Magazine Artwork Auction Nov 14
Published October 22nd, 2008
The last 36 pieces of iconic artwork from the early years of MAD Magazine go on the block on Nov. 14, as part of Heritage Auction Galleries’ November 2008 Vintage Comics & Comic Art Signature Auction.
This is a trove of the most iconic MAD covers and specialty art from some of the magazine’s greatest illustrators,” said Jared Green, Vice President of Business Development at Heritage. “These covers made Alfred E. Neuman a celebrity. His notoriety is owed in large part to these featured artworks by Norman Mingo, Kelly Freas, Jack Davis, Bob Clarke and Richard Williams.”
A preview of these seminal pieces will be on public display at Manhattan’s Museum of Comic & Cartoon Art (MoCCA) on Wednesday Oct. 29, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
All of the MAD artwork can be found online at www.HA.com/Mad. To see more from the November 2008 vintage comics & comic art Signature Auction, go online to www.HA.com.
