Richard A. Williams - Mad #322 Cover Original Art (EC, 1993). What, me pose? Alfred E. turns his back to us in this unusual portrait by Madman Williams. This one had everyone in our office wanting to flip it over to see if that famous gap-toothed smile would be found on the other side! Was it? Naahhh! This was the only drawn portion of the published cover, which had Alfred looking in puzzlement at photos of three other well-known gap-toothed personalities -- Prince Charles, Ted Koppel, and David Letterman. We kinda like it like this, with a snow-white background. Put this up on your wall and have everyone wonder what Mr. Neuman is looking at! Hoohah! The art is fully painted in oils, on a canvas board measuring 17" x 23.75", and is in Excellent condition.
