Al Jaffee, the "Mad Magazine" cartooning and fold-in king, who retired in 2020, dies at 102. 55 years of getting everyone to bend up the back cover of the magazine! A cartooning genius. - https://www.npr.org/2023/04/10/1169162240/mad-magazine-cartoonist-al-jaffee-obituary

@lauren Lots of fond memories trying to work out what the result of folding the cover would be before I gritted my teeth and did it as gently as possible (my upbringing to NEVER damage pages of books or magazines was strict!).

Snappy Answers was always one of my favourites.

Not all the good die young.
