First let me say you have an excellent Gunsmoke page and I have enjoyed it the past two years. I do have a question for you though, you list the Mad Mag with the GUNSMOKE parody as Dec 1959 and yet every Mad that I have found marked Dec 59 has a base drum marching band cover and no Gunsmoke parody. Could this be marked wrong on the page and if so what is the correct date and number as I am a Gunsmoke collector and need to find this article.

Hi Jay,

The date is from THE ORGANIZATION MAD which was a papeback book compulation of earlier Mad articles.I'm sure the original appeared much earlier.

I need to find out.
