JAB Spring 1993 - ? Cummings Design Group
JAB was certainly an interesting magazine, published in Birmingham Alabama, I believe it may have only been available to that market. This publication was the brainchild of artist Frank Cummings (incidentally certainly one of my favorites!) who went on to work for CRACKED and later for the Richard Simmons Organization. It consisted of a variety of typical humor pieces sandwiched between plenty of advertising with artwork done by one of the 4 contributing artists to the magazine. This concept predates MAD magazine's eventual reliance on advertising by a number of years.
It is a quality magazine printed on 50 lb paper in the interior and seemed to be an interesting concept to that particular market. The issue pictured here is from Spring '94 and was the 5th published, I'm not sure if any more exist.
