Mad #245 (Albert Feldstein) - Yellow Snow Issue - March 1984

Richard Williams drew his fourth consecutive Mad cover and took the baton from the great Norman Mingo (1896-1980) as the foremost Mad mascot (Alfred E. Neuman) expert.  Williams eventually drew 62 Mad covers to take second place behind Mingo.  He remained in that position until Mark Fredrickson drew his 63rd cover for the October 2009 issue (Mad #501).  The last Mad drawing by Richard Williams was the "Bad Girls" cover in December 2007 (Mad #484).
