Mad #46 (Albert Feldstein) - April Fool Issue - April 1959

Issue No. 46 featured the most elaborate cover joke to date.  The cover was purposely attached upside down and backwards so that Mad readers would open it and see page 48 upside down.  The "End of Mad" was actually the back cover and not the last issue as it appeared. [PSA2]

Horse and woman have identical tails and bows. ("Mad's Cut-Rate Success Symbols" - page 40)
