Submitted for your consideration,Warner Brothers Studio Store ExclusiveAlfred E. Neuman 14" Resin Figurine - 1993Mad Magazine - "What, Me Worry?Adult Collectible - Limited Edition Of 900Pre-Owned - Gently DisplayedIncludes Very Nice Box (1999)One of America's favorite comic book characters, Alfred E. Neuman is synonymous with Mad Magazine. Mad is an American humor magazine that satirizes pop culture, politics, entertainment, and public figures.It was founded in 1952 by William Gaines and Harvey Kurtzman as a comic book series, and became a black-and-white magazine in 1955.Mad is the last surviving title from the EC Comics line and has published 550 regular magazine issues since 1952The lovable Alfred E. Neuman was featured with a gap-toothed smile, parted red hair, freckles, protruding ears, and a scrawny body. It is said that Alfred originated from late 19th-century advertisements for painless dentistry. His "What, me worry?"motto also comes from these advertisements.Over the years, Warner Bros. has produced several Alfred E. Neuman statues, the mascot of the comic book MAD Magazine. You are offerding on the 14 inch statue from 1993. The statue depicts Neuman standing on a base that reads "What, me worry?" and has a copyright date on back of stand that says 1993.

I am including the wonderful Warner Brothers store shopping bag that the store provided. The statue has been displayed in my home for a few years in a smoke-free and pet-free environment. Item was recently given a light dusting and returned to its packaging (clear plastic bag, top and bottom foam inserts).

Please be aware, that although the figure has a copyright date of 1993 stamped onto the back of the base, the box shows a date of 1999. Also, there is a price sticker on the bottom of figurine in the amount of 34.00, while the box has a price sticker showing $34.99.I was not the original purchaser of this item, soI am not sure why there is a discrepancy. My guess is that the previous owner put the original 1993 figurine into a 1999 box. My research did turn up the fact that the 1993 version had a limited edition of 900. The box is in very nice shape with some light, typical shelf wear, including some minor spotting, scuffing, and scratches, and displays beautifully.Please refer to pics and ask any questions before offerding as there are no returns :-(
