Catalogue- SEARS, ROEBUCK AND CO.,
Chicago, Ill., U.S.A. Catalogue No. 112, 1902.
By this time the ”big book” was impressive to say the least, published in
paper and hardback (50¢
and $1.00). This one is the big hardback. Richard Sears had problems with
printers early on and by this time had moved his catalogue production in-house.
They occupied and entire block bounded by Fulton, Desplaines, Wayman and
Jefferson Streets. The engravings have been improved, paper is higher quality
and merchandise selection is quite impressive. Faded place on front and front
hinge slightly shaken. Some wear to bottom spine edge. Three pages in the curtains/rug
area have been neatly razored out. In all other respects catalogue sits up
square and clean and is in much better condition than many we get this old.
There is only one page devoted to the electric belts in this catalogue. 9”x
11-3/4”x 1,088pp. $239.00

been replaced. 7-5/8”x 10”x 56pp. $72.00

Memphis, Tenn., No. 155, F/W 1927-1928.
Very nice selection of merchandise. This is just before the crash of ’29 and
you can tell everyone was enjoying a high degree of prosperity by these
merchandise lines. A number of years ago this writer was in a discussion with an
old timer about the economy and I asked him what the best year was in his memory
for him and his family. He thought a moment and then said it had to be 1928. He
then described, I thought very eloquently, the contrast from 1928 to the bleak
days of 1929 and beyond for years. These vintage catalogues reveal very well the
condition of our economy at any given time. Well, the catalogue-- Full lines
with everything imaginable offered: clothing and shoes for the family, household
goods, furniture, radios, bicycles, stoves, auto accessories and parts, sporting
goods, tents, firearms, traps, rods, reels, tackle, basketball, football,
boxing, tennis, shaving goods, razors, pocket knives, luggage, 5pp of Christmas
decorations, 38pp of dolls, games, electric trains, 6pp of candies; pipes,
lamps, small electric
appliances, flashlights, 20pp of musical instruments, 6pp of phonographs,
6pp of radios, watches, jewelry, cameras, fountain pens, clocks, agricultural
equipment, wagons, windmills, poultry equipment……you get the idea!
