...had faced in both the past and today. Issues such as class, sexism, religion and race have either reared its ugly heads or have been brushed upon by this series about an advertising agency in the 1960s. The center of ”MAD MEN” is mainly focused upon advertising executive named Don Draper. But the series also focuses upon his co-workers at the firm he works at – Sterling Cooper – and his family...
I'm looking for a book I had when I was 5 or 6, at the time I would say it had to be at least 10 years old already. So the book seemed kind of dated, in all honesty it could be anywhere from 60's-late...occasionally running outside of the lines, instead of detailing the rose petals they were more like scribbled swirls.

...and my ideas are going to become more and more unimportant. There’s something going on which I don’t think I understand anymore, and I used to have a confidence that I understood the times better...

In 1960s he put painting and poetry together but he gradually fully turned to experimenting in visual art. In his work he used a scalpel to cut pictures out of magazines. He produced colors in his collages...
