Time for more
I don't claim that these are the greatest humor magazines ever published, but they definitely make for interesting reads. Panic and Grin are more or less MAD rip offs, with maybe a bit of National Lampoon's political irreverence mixed in. The Jayne Mansfield magazine was a one time issue - obviously tongue in cheek. And lastly, Gee Wiz! - a hundred pages of grown up humor. Tons of dirty cartoons and jokes, the type you'd find in Playboy, plus a few pin-ups for good measure.
Panic Magazine July 1958



Jayne Mansfield for President 1964
Grin April 1973


Gee Whiz! May 1959

Heh, fun stuff. Gee Whiz will no doubt be my favorite. Cartoons in Playboy always had a certain charm.
ReplyDeleteI see someone other than my brother spent their time drawing beards and hair on people in comic books and Mad-type magazines. Grin's Deliverancid has some added by somebody, complete with bleed-through.
ReplyDeleteThank you for making them PDFs. I love the Jayne Mansfield one.
ReplyDeleteThanks for offering as pdf.
ReplyDeleteCould you post the photo to the retrospace Zeta blog w/o the graphics added? It would work great on a 70's mixtape....
Thank you.
ReplyDeleteThese look interesting.
