Historical Treasure


Sears catalogs as historical reference. Flipping through this series published by Shiffer was enlightening, a glimpse into the clothing available to the average American. Seeing it described as fashionable is pause for thought, but then again the designs did change with the times.

I grew up questioning my parents on why they had to keep every season's Sears catalog. I am eating those words now.
