Mad Men returns tonight!

Mad Men returns tonight for the first part of the seventh and final season. Creator Mathew Weiner has commented that 'he always set out to spin a Tale of Two Coasts, "to tell a story that started in 1960, where New York was the focus of not just the United States but the world, and to show the rise of California," which "certainly became, by the end of the '60s, the cultural center of the United States." We can't wait to see how they incorporate the new L.A. office into the storyline. We've been looking at photos of L.A. in 1969 in anticipation, here are some of our favorites:
