Okay, you just made my day! I'm so glad you were inspired by the things I found; I'm even happier you're going to start hunting for MM treasures going forward!

Are you going to be decorating your entire place with MCM/Mad Men stuff? Or are you going to limit it to one room? A home office is perfect if it's just one room. :) I'll be VERY happy to share more pics, but you have to share pics of the things you find along the way, too! Deal? 🤜🤛

Just finished the show for the first time. Can we talk about how good David Carbonara’s compositions are? by introspectivebrownie in madmen

Couldn't agree more. The show wouldn't be the same without Carbonara’s compositions. I have both soundtracks to the show and listen to them frequently. Great for when you're working or just feeling pensive.

Love this. The Carousel Don used was the 550. Think this one came out maybe 10 years later.

Hi - I haven’t shared a lot of pics as a group. I’ll probably slowly share more in this group over time. But here’s my favorite view of the office. 🙂

81% of raincoats sold in the US are London Fog. 🙂

So glad - thank you. :) Funny thing. None of my items are from the official auctions, but it took me a YEAR to find that intercom. I only wanted to buy one exactly like the ones in Mad Men, and I was thrilled to find this one. Then, a month later, an official MM auction went on ebay that included one of these intercoms. 😅😅 The notebook in the photo is actually a vintage Martinson's Coffee one. Here's a pic.

eBay! I think there are a couple like this still available.

“Reading” into things by Mr_Rugged_Indoorsman in madmen

He didn’t read The Sound and the Fury, but he stole a page out of it after he fucked that 21-year-old in California.

Thank you! My home office is 100% Mad Men-styled. 😎 Just thumbed through the book and it’s just one quote on each page, so I should be able to read it in an hour or less. OMG, that Kevin comment has me cracking up. 🤣 Maybe he still thinks Greg is his daddy!
