National lampoon magazine

I have spent the last few hours pouring over the NL online archives. What a treasure trove. Most of it is unpostable here.

Some things never change:



Comedy gold:

Where did you find it? I searched but came up dry.


By the way…here is a pdf of the yearbook. Brilliant.

I did an image search on Bing for "National Lampoon Yearbook" and got a bunch of pics and screenshots.

Amazon has it on sale for $1500. Of course I would need a cosigner.

The above link will give you the whole book in pdf.

This brings back memories!

I remember the first time I saw it- I was a sophomore in HS. I couldn't believe my eyes! It was like MAD, only better!

I subbed for years. I remember reading Vacation '58 and thinking it was one of the funniest stories I'd ever read.

There's a video (I won't post a link!) called "Drunk, Stoned, Brilliant, Dead" giving the background of how it all started. I bought it and have it in my Amazon library. I highly recommend it to anyone who liked the magazine.

Thanks for posting the link. I haven't laughed so hard since reading the Forum's Rules, Terms of Service, & Information .

IIRC, didn't they have the Fabulous Fury Freak Brothers?

The FFFB was a popular underground comic book series by Gilbert Shelton. I think I've still got a half dozen or so issues around here somewhere.

Way back when I read them all, plus Fat Freddy's Cat and Zippy the Pinhead.

I like to use one of Freewheelin' Franklin's quotes, only altered just a little:

"Having ammo in times of no money is better than having money in times of no ammo!"

Here are some great quotes from PJ.

Oh, yes, the Freak Brothers and their cat.
From the '****, my favorite was Politenessman.

So, since we're talking about the magazine, does anyone remember the National Lampoon Radio Hour? Brilliant!!

And his steel hanky!

They definitely pushed the boundaries.

I don't remember that, but I do have on vinyl National Lampoon's White Album, from 1980. Posting a photo would certainly get me a ding, so use Google Images if you'd like to see it. Let's just say it would be considered politically incorrect, especially in today's climate!
