mad fold in

I grew up on Mad magazine with its mix of dorky humor and current events. I would get at it the library — it was always the most banged up (and usually missing) magazine that the library carried. Part of reason for Mad being so ragged was the back page fold in section.

So I was really excited to see an Al Jaffe writeup in the times this past sunday. The man who is also responsible for snappy answers to stupid questions is still doing the fold in by hand after 44 years.

Also, Martine sent me this really neat interactive fold-in feature in NYT online.
