Neuman asks the question, "Who Needs You?," in this side-splitting send-up of James Montgomery Flagg's famous Uncle Sam poster image. In tribute, the Mad-man signed it "James Montgomery Mingo" at the lower right, and also inscribed the piece to Mad's art director, "To my dear friend John Putnam -- Norman Mingo." This mixed media "Mad-sterwork" has a 7.75" x 10.25" image area, and it's been matted and framed to an overall size of 14" x 17". The art is in Excellent condition, and a copy of Mad #126 is included with this lot.
