National Lampoon — December 1975, "Money" Issue (Vintage Magazine)
Vintage & Found · The Foundry
National Lampoon. December 1975. Money.
The December 1975 issue of National Lampoon — the Money issue. Cover art depicts a boy in formal wear and a red bow tie, urinating on a manhole cover in the snow while a wealthy couple watches from a limousine, a chauffeur looking on. A Men Working sign in the foreground. The image is rendered in the warm, detailed style of early 20th century illustration — the joke is in the contrast. Inside: Rodrigues’ Entrepreneurs, The Great Price War, Gilded Era Funnies. Cover price: one dollar.
National Lampoon was at the height of its cultural influence in the mid-1970s — the same era that produced the Lampoon Radio Hour, the stage show, and the writers who would go on to define Saturday Night Live and American film comedy. This is from that moment.
Good vintage condition. Individually bagged. One of a kind.
