The Complete MAD Paperback Gift Set List

4
10230

MAD paperback boxed/gift sets are now all around 30 years old or more. They are very rare in most cases and especially rare in decent condition.

Some serious collectors don ‘t attempt to collect them, perhaps because of how hard they are to get and the expense, but I know some collector ‘s don ‘t see the point – since all the book titles already appear in their collection of the paperback books.

I see the gift-sets as being very interesting. The gift sets are much harder to find than any of the regular books, they look great, the books are often mint inside …and I see it as a great excuse to own more MAD paperbacks.

The 30 years or more of age, the reading of the books, the handling of the boxed sets etc, has led to a situation where it can be hard to know what original PRINTING of each book title belongs in each gift set, as the sets often seem to have had books substituted for one reason or another, by owners. Sometimes one or more books are missing.

I am not sure if anywhere there is an accurate list of MAD gift-box titles, WITH the original printing numbers they were issued with. – But I would like to know. I think it ‘s essential to hopefully have the original books, but at worst, the correct, identical printing as a substitute.

We are presenting a list of gift set titles & variations here – plus a work-in-progress list or tally, of what PRINTINGS collectors have in their gift sets. Obviously if the majority have a particular printing, then it ‘s more than likely that printing is the original one. – SO, hopefully collectors can compare and contribute to this list – please…even if it means undoing the plastic preservation covers and opening up 20 fragile boxes, friends.
Thanks for your help and hopefully the list can help you. – We also want to know every name and every variation of boxed sets, the list does not have them all yet. Please help if you can ?

It’s A MAD, MAD, MAD, MAD World

For years there has been a rumored boxed-set titled ‘MAD, MAD, MAD, MAD World‘ – however, I don’t know anyone with first hand knowledge of it’s existence. I think there is a good chance it was recorded as a misidentified VHS video boxed-set of the famous movie with that title, especially as MAD’s Jack Davis did the art-work for the movie poster.

      • Bernd, do you actually have in your possession the Al Jaffee Cool Calm box set? Because I do, and it’s a five book set not a 4 book set, with one side listing 5 books and the other side only listing 4 books, a little Al Jaffee humor I’m assuming. So do you have an actual 4 book set of this? Thanks, Jason, TheMADmuseum.com

        • Jason, yes I do have the Al jaffee 4 book set and the side is listing 4 books and 4 books are really inside. I’m pretty sure that 2 version (4 books and 5 books) exist. Please check the images on this page. The boxes are different and lists 4 books on the 1st version and 5 books on the 2nd version.
