Hilarious collection of cartoons and sketches. The 1960s were filled with Jewish humour and burgeoning sexuality, and these two things collided in the formation of Fanny Hillman, a matronly woman who ran her well-regarded house of ill repute with a very Yiddish twang. Madam Hillman was the star of a series of cartoon booklets, created by a very Jewish writing staff and drawn by an artist who was left off the credit page but whose identity was clear at a glance: Mad Magazine's marginal master, the (very not Jewish) Sergio Aragon's. 16mo.
