I loved the story about King Midas. It's a great reminder that gold (money) is not everything. We should all read this story repeatedly. Rohi

Is page 29 the artist Dave Berg of MAD fame?
By SuperScrounge
Yes. Berg did work for a few companies, Archie for certain. He also worked for comic book packagers Demby Studio and the Will Eisner Studio.

Very interesting! Although I've read almost all of MAD, I wouldn't have recognized Dave Berg by his drawing style for Fairy Tales comics.
