Description
During the mid-20th century, the much-anticipated arrival of the Sears gift catalog marked the start of the holiday season. This faithful reprint of the retailer’s 1942 Christmas edition offers a nostalgia-inducing look at consumer goods of the era — and their astonishingly low prices — from dolls and toy trains to housewares, clothing, furniture, candy, and a selection of gifts for servicemen. A new Introduction offers insights into the catalog’s historic value.
