One of the reasons I loved watching the 'Mad Men' series was because I had read this book years ago. It wasn't until I got this edition that I found the producers used this book to help them develop that series. Jerry Della Femina, the author, serves up a finely tuned glimpse of the 50' & 60's Madison Ave. The Mad Men folks got it right and they got it right from This book. You'll learn who killed Speedy Alka Seltzer, who painted Braniff Airlines airplanes and who the wonderful folks who gave you Pearl Harbor are. This book is a hoot! I will never let it leave my library. Thanks Amazon for carrying this gem.
NOTE OF CAUTION - There are anecdotes in this book that got me laughing so hard, tears were running down my face. This can cause problems if you are eating alone. People think you are either severely despondent, choking, or a nut job.
In any case, it is worth reading if you like to laugh while you learn.
Written in a smart and funny way, as you would expect from an ad-man and enjoyable. Not too complicated, good book before you go to bed, on your vacation or when waiting for your delayed flight....

I’ve often reminisced, chuckling about the story of the toy gun packaging showing a kid dressed as a soldier hiding behind a mound brandishing the toy weapon contained in the box and the “mud not included” disclaimer on the box.
