I have to admit my most exciting moments in watching Mad Men are when
I recognize a familiar face, namely one of my favorite vintage
housewares. My husband thinks I am absolute nut when I blurt "Oh my
God!!! Megan is drinking wine from a Libbey Accent wine glass! CAN YOU
BELIEVE IT!"
Now
my inner Libbey nerd is thinking "Wow. Megan has a secret time
machine!" The wine
glass she drinks from one her California deck in 1969 appears to be a
tawny Libbey Accent wine glass, but as far as I can tell Accent was not
introduced until April 1970. Or maybe she just has inside
connections. Maybe Don had the Libbey account and they never mention it
on the show...

Still,
I was very excited to see one of my favorite Libbey patterns on the
show. And I am sure the set designers will continue to rock my world
when season 7 resumes. Until then I think I will look back at each
episode. More to come.
