\"\"<\/a>Sunday night, The New York Botanical Garden<\/a> got a brief mention on AMC<\/a>‘s hit TV show ‘Mad Men<\/a>.’ The episode–full of more twists<\/a> and turns<\/a> than the Floral Flyer<\/a>‘s route–was set in 1966.

Mertz Library<\/a>, who, in surprisingly short time, uncovered a treasure trove of images that look as if they had been stills pulled from un-aired scenes of this dark and addicting drama.<\/p>\n
