Come Fly With Me

Two thumbs up for old advertising! Madmen is nothing but a soap opera for people with good taste. An old-lady-bored-at-home-must-watch-something-livelier-than-the-snoozing-cats soap opera. Only difference between Madmen and All My Children is the impeccable art direction of the nighttime soap. But look here! REAL advertising beautifully rendered just prior to Don Draper's takeover of AMC. And really, if that show was worth anything, they would've kept Sal(vatore) Romano, the only really likable character of the whole bunch.

Four-color perfection


NOT starring Keanu Reeves









Looks like the milkman? Maybe all delivery personnel wore bow ties in olden days.

You're going to need unlimited vision in a squall like that.  


Oh, the places you'll go. There will even be men in sombreros with donkeys!
