    I don’t think this is real. If you search up the issue number you’ll see the real version. It’s also from 1974.

        No, someone took an existing painting and modified it with copy/paste to show two middle fingers. Which is also ironic, given the message they’re trying to send.

        That part isn’t on the original cover. Is this a real foldout from a recent MAD issue that is an updated version of the 1974 cover?

      Yea I wondered that after I posted my comment but I wondered if it was a joke issue or something. A lot of the issues I had growing up had a front cover and a back one that would work if you flipped it the right way that was an alternative or a joke cover.
