Monday Madness MAD "Stokley and Bess"

Before we begin the re-presentation of this never-reprinted tale adapting...
...I sincerely suggest anybody under 45 check out the links to these people...
and this musical...
...before proceeding.

Is there a reason this particular tale by Larry Siegel and Mort Drucker from MAD #111 (1967) has never been reprinted?

Did it generate too much negative reader response?
One thing's for sure...it wouldn't be done in today's cultural climate!
Please Support Atomic Kommie Comics

(note: requires region-free DVD player since it's an import disc)
The movie's NEVER been released in the US on DVD or BluRay!
