TV's suavest alcoholic sent Greenwich Village hearts into a flutter when his post-divorce bachelor pad's location was revealed as being in the vicinity of Waverly Place and Sixth Avenue.

Now, thanks to the most recent episode and the equally maniacal obsession of Mad Men fans (and the power of freeze-framing!), we can say with confidence that while Don Draper may not be real, his address certainly is.

William Bradley: Mad Men Makes the All-Time Television Pantheon and Unspools Another Fine Episode

The first part of this season is more pleasant to watch than the first part of last season. But until we know where we're going this season, I'm not sure how consequential it will all turn out to be.

William Bradley: Mad Men Review: Another Famous Anthropological Study

The reports of Don Draper's descent into chaos have been greatly exaggerated. Much more happened in this episode, and there was a sense of greater forward motion. There be spoilers ahead, as usual.

In looking at the address I see a zipcode. I'm not so sure that they used zipcodes back them. They did use postal codes. Back then the addtess would have been "New York 11, N.Y."

I wondered about that also, so I looked it up. Zip codes were initiated in 1963, and the check is dated 1965, so it is probably correct.
