Greasy Mad Stuff #[nn]
In "The Night The Price Is All Right Has An Unexpected Guest," Al Jaffee's sharp wit takes a satirical spin on mid-20th-century whiskey advertising, with Bob Clarke's art bringing to life a parade of mock ads for Old Crow, Canadian Club, Seagram’s 7 Crown, and others. Cover by Kelly Freas, this 1963 New American Library gem quietly skewers the evolving role of women in commercials—and hints at where the trend might lead, with a wry eye toward the future.
