The 1897 Sears, Roebuck and Co. Catalog Recently my local historical society had its annual yard sale. One of the items I bought was a reprint of this famous catalog. It was recreated by Fred L. Israel of the City College of New York. It is 786 pages long (including the index). I have copies some of the pages to give you an indication of American life in these times. I had fun putting this together and I hope you do too! (Only the cover is in color, all the other pages are black and white)
