Product Details
Paperback: 96 pages
Publisher: Perigee Books; Original edition (October 6, 2010)
If you're a fan of the series, particularly seasons one through three, you will get a big charge out of this book. Aside from the artwork, which is very good and funny, the book gives a tongue-in-cheek commentary about many of the people and events in the series during the first few seasons. For example, "How to decorate your room around a Victorian Fainting Couch" refers to Betty's hiring an interior designer to have a beautiful living room, then on a whim buying a huge Victorian Fainting Couch that makes a mockery of the carefully designed room. The drink recipes are accompanied by a drawing of little daughter Sally Draper mixing up drinks for the grown-ups, one of the historical/hysterical background jokes in the series. Also funny are the paper-doll cut-outs of Joan, where you can dress her in various outfits from the series, including an playing the accordian.

If you are a huge fan of the series, this is for you. If you are not, it is just ok. It is a cool look cartoony look into the world of Mad Men. But if you are just a regular fan, it might not do it for you. I like just taking a look while having a few old episodes on. Just some pretty cool stuff.

Unless the person you're buying for is the most casual of fans, they should be delighted with Dyna Moe's sense of humor and eye for details. The art captures with style and wit some of the iconic images devoted viewers know by heart, bringing out clever details. We learn how to make some of your better cocktails and then how to whip up hangover recipes. (The image for the former references Sally's skill with a shaker, and the latter is Betty on the bed after "A Night To Remember.")There are several pages devoted to a Joan paper doll. Pete with rifle, Paul at his most pretentious, a stewardess making eyes at the cool and collected Don, as well as Sal, and Connie, and Peggy... You'll learn how to create the perfect bouffant, and well as the books you'll need to know about to bluff your way through a cocktail party, phrases for well-meaning squares who might want to attend a freedom ride, and what your secretary's hairstyle means.
Swell!

I'm a huge fan of the show, and I'm not sure what I was hoping for in this book, but I was a little disappointed by the content. Ms. Moe's illustrations are fantastic, but her humor was uneven and generally too silly for my tastes. From the Amazon preview pages I knew it'd be a bit of a light-hearted take on the show, but I also thought there'd be some insight into the "Mad Men world" - recipes for making period cocktails, early 60's fashion, etc.
Instead, it's more or less a parody of the show's content, and it just gets cornier as the book goes on. If you're a fan of the show, you can safely pass this one up. Dyna Moe is a gifted illustrator, but her jokes fall flat and feel forced more often than not.

This is a fun fun fun book. Get it if you're a fan and pop it on your Noguchi coffee table. You'll pick it up anytime you want a good lift. Good with a drink in hand (what isn't) or without.
