Price sticker on front cover. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn April 1972, MAD Magazine Issue No. 150 arrived on newsstands, delivering its signature brand of anarchic, razor-sharp satire to a generation hungry for irreverent commentary on American politics, pop culture, and the absurdities of modern life. This landmark issue continues the publication's proud tradition of skewering everything from Hollywood blockbusters and television sitcoms to advertising culture and political hypocrisy, all wrapped in the gloriously subversive packaging that made MAD a counterculture institution.\n\nPublished by EC Publications under the creative stewardship of editor Al Feldstein, MAD had by 1972 cemented its reputation as one of the most influential satirical publications in American history — a training ground for comedic minds and a cultural touchstone for baby boomers. With its iconic smiley-face cover perfectly lampooning the era's hollow optimism, Issue No. 150 stands as a time capsule of wit, parody, and gleeful irreverence that continues to resonate decades later. A must-have for collectors and comedy connoisseurs alike, this issue poses one enduring question: in a world full of identical smiling faces, are you brave enough to be the one laughing differently?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49313643331803,"sku":"2026100009125-SECONDHAND","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/76f6d2f2-fe1b-40e7-be7e-cf7092ee25b1.png?v=1789524912","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100009125-secondhand-mad-magazine-no-150-april-1972","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
