National Lampoon — Banana Issue (October 1973)
National Lampoon — Banana Issue (October 1973)
A bagged and boarded copy of the National Lampoon Banana Issue, October 1973. The cover is a masterpiece of absurdist art direction — Van Gogh's bandaged self-portrait, faithfully reproduced in his own swirling style, holding a banana instead of his severed ear. The headline screams "What? BANANA ISSUE, What?" across the top. Conceptually perfect.
Inside: the full Banana Issue treatment from a magazine that understood surrealism better than most art schools. A highly collectible issue for both Lampoon fans and art history enthusiasts.
