SUNDAY FUNNIES - MAD #11 Dragnet.



This is the last section of MAD Comicbook No. 11. It is a lampoon on the TV series DRAGNET starring Jack Webb. In MAD No. 3 was also a lampoon on DRAGNET but Sgt. Joe Friday looked nothing like Jack Webb, which he did in this one. Why do you suppose that was the case? Same artist, Will Elder? Give up? The Dragnet lampoon in Number 3 was a lampoon on DRAGNET that was a series on the radio at the time. How he looked was unimportant. Illustrated by MAD editor Harvey Kurtzman and illustrated by Will Elder.

Also, above is the letter page for MAD #11.
