    Back story is my mother sold her house last fall. After 50 years the house I moved in at 5 years old. It was “my house”.

    Well 50 years of living makes for moms youngest son getting many boxes of stuff. I waited to go through it all as some was my fathers, some mine and some whatever mom put inside.

    Amomg the many pieces I found my old Mad magazine. It took me awhile to age the magazine as it had no date code on it. Looking at uncle Sam on the back cover he was listed as 198 years old. That puts this magazine at 1974. A nine year old lil pike.

    The uncle sam really caught my eye. As I read the different anatomy blurbs I had to chuckle. I remember buying Mad magazine on a regular basis.
    The era had Watergate, Vietnam war and China. Some things never change (dirty politics, war, and China).

    Hope you enjoy and for some of you it brings back fun memories.
