1956-81 MAD MAGAZINES ACCUMULATION ... PH $300-400

About 100 issues of this popular humor magazine beginning
with issue #28 from July 1956 and includes several others from
the 1950s and many from the 1960s & 70s with several annual
special editions. Also noted a few other similar publications
including a poor copy of issue #2 of ‘TRUMP’ from March of
1957 (2 of this issue, rare). Overall mostly fair to Very Good.
Some faulty, especially among the earlier issues. Most retail in
the $10 to $50 range each. A fun opportunity. The humor,
especially in the earliest issues is wonderful.

Small archive of 4 long family letters (multi-page folded letters)
written 1839-44 to Charles Burnham, manager of Hawaii’s
first sugar plantation, mailed from Tolland, CT, to Kauai,
Sandwich Islands. Letters, two from his mother and one each
from sisters Mary and Emeline, discuss everything from
religion, ‘I have lately read in the paper that the Roman
Catholics are building a Chapel in Honolulu, which news I am
very sorry to hear... ...I have thought that if you ever arrived
there your hearts would be rejoiced in view of what God had
done for the poor heathen...’, to local and national news to
news of the death of one of his sisters (Emeline). There is much
to be explored. Charles Burnham and his wife arrived in Hawaii
April 27, 1839, and took over the operation May 6. Burnham
remained as plantation manager for five years. Each letter has
MS ‘Tolland’ marking, no receiving marks. Some small faults.
