This will shorten it up a bit:

>>> options = ['Any' ]
>>> for year in range(1970,2016):
...     options.append(str(year))
...
>>> options
['Any', '1970', '1971', '1972', '1973', '1974', '1975', '1976', '1977', '1978', '1979', '1980', '1981', '1982', '1983', '1984', '1985', '1986', '1987', '1988', '1989', '1990', '1991', '1992', '1993', '1994', '1995', '1996', '1997', '1998', '1999', '2000', '2001', '2002', '2003', '2004', '2005', '2006', '2007', '2008', '2009', '2010', '2011', '2012', '2013', '2014', '2015']

I think OP wants to limit the number of rows to be displayed when click on optionmenu dropdown

[Larz60+]

the optionMenu widget doesn't have many options (excuse the pun)
Can you use a ttk Treeview instead?
You can control how many rows are exposed and add a scroll bar to scan through.
The fact that it is a tree, means that you can have expandable sublists as well, something
you may want to use in the future.

You can read up on the options available here: Treeview
