I scored four National Lampoon Magazines 1971-1973. I was way too young to appreciate these when they came out but I couldn't help myself when I saw them at the thrift store for only .99 cents each.

The cover with the dog on the front is a very familiar image...otherwise these are foreign to me. But I like!

There are illustrations, comics, stories and photos throughout each book; lots of humor. I checked CPG, it seems National Lampoon Magazine doesn't appear to fit comic book definition. I would have thought it would file under independants, like Heavy Metal Magazine.

Anyone know where I could price these?

Thank you,

-Dan

I've never heard of Nat Lamp.s having any collector value, but I haven't been up to date in the market since some time in the late 70's. Try looking at ebay's completed-auctions list to see if N.L. back issues command a premium?

Nat Lamp contains too little comic strip material to be included in the db...except for a couple of their comicstrip only specials...

Great mag for it's time...think "Animal House" on paper...some great illustrations and covers by Frazetta and many other comic artists...strips by Jeff Jones (IDYLL), Bode (Cheech), Bobby London (Dirty Duck), and my old acquaintance Sherry Fleniken (Trotts and Bonnie) as well as occasional material from Russ Heath (great fetish battlin' babes strips), Neal Adams, Trina Robbins and many others...

It was Mad magazine for the college crowd and well loved.

Without it we wouldn't have nay of the Nat Lamp movies...

Pristine copies are hard to find...
