New Yorkers are getting a chance to show their love for Mad Men and their creative side with these Mad Men Falling Man posters. The posters feature the image of a falling man dressed in a suit and tie. The poster features a large amount of empty white space to encourage the public to customize the poster however they saw fit.
The resulting posters are artistic, clever and often hilarious. The falling man has been transformed into a number of things and people, including Batman, food for the Cookie Monster and a break dancer. The Mad Men Falling Man posters are a simple and smart way to drum up enthusiasm for the show’s new season. (My only complaint is that these posters weren’t placed in cities across the country. Creatives live on the West Coast too!)
