Can somebody please tell me what the heck that black thing with the green domed top on Don Draper's desk is? I thought it was perhaps a cigarette holder or a pencil sharpener, but I can't find any information on what it is. Hi!

In the case of Elements of Style blog suggestions, there's a lot of things that are more late 60s to early 70s (including the Adler references and the Parker). None of the items on the set of Mad Men were bought new, anyway. They all came from antique stores, eBay, second-hand shops, thrift stores, etc. In fact, I know that Amy actually bought many of the items used on the show from stores in Long Beach, such as Xcape (xcapelongbeach.com) and Deja Vu (dejavulongbeach.com).

I think I've upped my subscription for the next 9 years somehow - it will probably outlive me!
