Mad Men is an amazing show on AMC about an ad agency in the 1960’s. Beautiful art direction and tons of details make it feel very genuine and really draws you into the story. But as Mark Simonson points out, not all details are just right.

Can anyone – besides Eric – tell whats wrong with these pictures?

Lots more and details at the link.
