For anyone who is interested there is an obituary in today's issue of The Guardian. It looks at his artistic life and focuses on his time as editor of Mad magazine, during which there was a period when it was shifting 2,000,000 copies a week.

Here's the online version of the Guardian obituary, which appeared on Sunday 11th. Don't know if it's the same article.

Feldstein comes across as a fairly talented regular guy in this interview:

I don't think he was one of the greats but I think he was a catalyst for great things at E.C. I actually enjoyed his version of MAD more than Harvey Kurtzman's for some reason.

It is, dishes, minus the colour photograph. The b/w photo was used.
