Al Jaffee died at the age of 102

Allan "Al" Jaffee (March 13, 1921 in Savannah, Georgia as Abraham Jaffee; † April 10, 2023 in New York City) was an American cartoonist best known for his work for MAD magazine gained great notoriety and popularity.

In issue #86 of 1964, Jaffee created his longest-running Mad feature, the Fold-In. In each, a drawing is folded vertically and inward to reveal a new "hidden" picture (as well as a new caption). Originally, Jaffee intended it as a one-shot "cheap" satire of the triple fold-outs that were appearing in glossy magazines such as Playboy, National Geographic, and Life.
