Yep, I still have ALL my Mads - every issue since July 1976 - and none are mint!

How is the magazine these days? I haven't picked up an issue for a couple of years.

It is extremely uneven. I subscribe to it, which saves a lot of money. I'll blog about the next issue I receive and give you an idea of what I'm talking about.

Thanks, Hoaward. I'll keep an eye out for it.
