On History: Bill Gaines, 1991

By | Tuesday, November 22, 2016 Leave a Comment
I've never seen complete footage of Bill Gaines' 1953 Senate testimony, just snippets in documentaries. But I did find that Gaines once appeared on Later with Bob Costas in 1991. The audio is decidedly out of sync and there's lot of VHS artifacting, but he starts talking about the Senate hearings at around the eleven minute mark. There's nothing new here -- I'm sure this has been viewed by everyone who's done any real research on MAD -- but it's still fascinating for those who haven't seen it to hear it directly from Gaines' own mouth.
