Thank you!
My brother and I were big fans of comics and Mad. My mother detested them but my father figured that they would encourage us to read for enjoyment.
Alas, whenever we were packed off to church camp for a week, she would find our stashes and throw them out. One time she tried to bury them, but we located the grave and dug them up. Our comics never stayed pristine because we lent them to friends and neighbors.
