Mad Men characters, then and now: 11 transformations

Mad Men finishes its business for good this Sunday night at 10pm on AMC… And while we’re excited to watch where these characters end up, we’re equally interested in remembering where they each came from.

It’s been almost eight years since the first season aired, but the show spans about a decade, from March 1960 to (at least) October 1970. The world evolved so much in that short time frame, and the characters on Mad Men did, too. Scroll down to slide between your favorite characters’ first and last looks on the iconic show:
