Al Jaffee Blows a Fuse

by Al Jaffee

"This book is a collector's item," says Phil T. Trasch. "And that ain't all. Each and every one of Jaffee's books is a collector's item. If he ever stopped makin' 'em, half the garbage collectors in the country would be out of work." In typical fashion, Al Jaffe and other dim-outs in the world of wit, will bring you a laugh a minute. That's what you'll find in this book. Of course, that only takes care of one minute. What you do with the rest of the minutes, heaven only knows.

188 pages, Mass Market Paperback

About the author

Allan Jaffee was an American cartoonist. He was notable for his work in the satirical magazine Mad, including his trademark feature, the Mad Fold-in. Jaffee was a regular contributor to the magazine for 65 years and is its longest-running contributor. In a 2010 interview, Jaffee said, "Serious people my age are dead."
With a career running from 1942 until 2020, Jaffee holds the Guinness World Record for having the longest career as a comic artist. In the half-century between April 1964 and April 2013, only one issue of Mad was published without containing new material by Jaffee.
In 2008, Jaffee was honored by the Reuben Awards as the Cartoonist of the Year. Cartoonist Arnold Roth of The New Yorker said, "Al Jaffee is one of the great cartoonists of our time." Peanuts creator Charles M. Schulz wrote, "Al can cartoon anything."

This is an old one I dug out the other day. Timeless stupid humor.
