The Jörg Patzelt Collection
My first contact to MAD magazine was 46 years ago, when I was 14 years old. We stopped at a highway station, while I was travelling to Austria with my parents. There I bought my first MAD magazine, the German MAD number 36 from the 1st Edition.

The Dr. Gary L. Kritzberg Collection
I was born in 1955; the first year that “Mad Magazine" launched! How cool is that? In the 1960‘s my father & mother owned a Jewish delicatessen/restaurant in Chicago, IL & just down the street was a small “corner drug store".

Because of my father I started to love comic books very early... especially MAD Magazin.
At first I was just interested in the MAD paintings......
The Tim Johnson Collection
I first started reading MAD in 1976, at the age of 11. Some kids on the school bus were passing an issue around, so I looked at it too. A few months later, I bought my first issue from the newsstand, and I was hooked.
The Michael Elias Collection
The main part of my collection are the paperbacks, books and magazines from the USA. And of course original artwork, especially done for paperbacks!
