AlienFTM Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 WHAT ME WORRY sent me scurrying to the wiki page for Alfred E Neuman http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfred_E._Neuman I loved this snippet: In 1958, Mad published letters from several readers noting the resemblance between Neuman and England's Prince Charles, then nine years old.[9] Shortly thereafter, an angry letter under a Buckingham Palace letterhead arrived at the Mad offices: "Dear Sirs No it isn't a bit – not the least little bit like me. So jolly well stow it! See! Charles. P." The letter was authenticated as having been written on triple-cream laid royal stationery bearing an official copper-engraved crest. The postmark indicated it had been mailed from a post office within a short walking distance of Buckingham Palace. Unfortunately, the original disappeared years ago while on loan to another magazine and has never been recovered.[10] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
