THIS ITEM HITS A HOME RUN!!!!
This reprint takes you back to how news was reported not only in the 1920s...but also how much of an impact Babe Ruth had on our society. This is a Los Angeles newspaper...yet The Babe grabbed headlines from coast-to-Coast!!! This is indicative of the sway The Babe continued to have on our culture to this day. It is the size of newspapers as printed back in that era, and it had lent itself to a growing appreciation of the 1920s, stemming to my visit to The Mob Museum last year. Everything is legible, easy to read, and truly transports you to the 1920s very well. This is a birthday treat for me.,.and may it be a treat for anyone interested in any kind of history!!!

STILL MAD ABOUT MAD MEN GOING INTO SECOND SEASON!
2 of 2 found this helpful Being someone who is interested in peroid pieces from the 1960s in particular, Mad Men's premise appealed to me about those men who worked on Madison Avenue at the time as an avenue to creative types to have rich, prolific careers in putting their creativity to use. At the heart of the series is one of these men, Don Draper, who on the surface seems to have it all (great job, respect of his peers over/under, a beautiful wife, two adorable children, many women on the side) yet somehow cannot help that all is not well with him from within. The angst of Don--as well as those around him--make this an exceptional series NOT to be missed!!!! Though set in 1960, the knawing which permeates Don's living can be seen in the prism of anyone who adjacent issues. Also, 1960 was still very much a (white) man's world--but not quite for long as this series will also touch upon as the episodes unfold. Change is in the air which we the viewers can see in retrospect that the characters, set in the moment, just cannot. With 16 Emmy nominations, including Best Drama Series, Best Actor (Jon Hamm, who plays Draper at the heart of this fine ensemble piece series) and Best Supporting Actor (John Slattery, better known as Gabrielle Solis' late mayoral husband, Victor, on Desperate Housewives. Slattery plays one of the partners at Draper's advertising firm.), not only is Mad Men a critically-acclaimed series unto itself, but also leading a probable shift towards the tastes of modern television viewers finding out just how wonderful basic television original series can really be. The show airs on AMC with its second season starting July 27, 2008!
I bought this first season set on Blu-ray to get the most out of the Mad Men viewing experience. I must say that, besides the great service I received from my seller, the set is a serious bargain!!!!! The picture and sound are solidly fine (the former stronger than the latter) and the commentaries are rather informative. I have liked this series all along since Day One, 2007. Yet now, in viewing this fine First Season set once more in the privacy of my own home via Blu-ray, my appreciation of this well-crafted series has grown even more--so much so that I just cannot say enough abot it as evidenced by the length of this review. Check Mad Men out for yourself and see if you will be Mad about it as I and may others evidentially are!!!!! :)
