Item description from seller

New York: Dell Publishing Co., Inc., 1931., 1931. Good. - Quarto, 11-1/2 inches high by 8-1/2 inches wide. Softcover, bound in color decorated wraps with a black & white illustration by Floherty titled "Morning, Major" on the front cover. The covers are soiled and lightly creased with a short split along the head of the spine. 48 pages, plus a 4-page insert on newsprint satirizing the gruesome yellow journalism of the time. The magazine is profusely illustrated in black & white throughout, including many full-page illustrations. There is some damp staining to the edges of a few pages with a few darker stains. Good. A precursor to MAD Magazine, Ballyhoo was a humor & satire magazine launched in August 1931. Created by George T. Delacorte Jr. and edited by Norman Anthony, the satirical magazine was conceived during the Great Depression. Its humor mocked corporate and advertising culture with spoofs of advertisements and caricatures of politicians and public figures of the period including President Hoover and prohibition. The satirical insert is titled "The Evening Traffic" for October 20, 1931 with boxes on either side of the title proclaiming "Weather: Fine Night for a Murder" and "All the Stiffs that are Fit to Print" followed by illustrated satirical stories about murders. The magazine further satirizes cigar advertising, and a song to drive away the Great Depression, mocking President Hoover, Calvin Coolidge, Al Smith, Henry Ford and Mayor Walker.
