By turns kitsch, sophisticated, and celebratory, this is an eye-popping and inventive tie-in to the hit show Mad Men, as well as a salute to the era of cocktails and Camelot. Inspired by the artistic styles that defined 1960s advertising, Dyna Moe creates a candy-coloured record of the time, exploring such topics as:
- The office culture, including secretary etiquette and hangover workarounds
- The cocktail craze, with Sally Draper's cocktail menu
- Pastimes and fads, such as Pete and Trudy's dancing lessons, and Bert Cooper's art
- 1960s icons from Jackie to Marilyn
- Boardroom and bedroom shenanigans
- The burgeoning suburban lifestyle
- Fabulous fashion, including hairstyle how-tos and bonus paper dolls of Joan
