1941-1942 Sears Roebuck Fall and Winter Catalog
1941-1942 Sears Roebuck Fall and Winter Catalog
A rare, 1940's Sears catalog. The Sears Roebuck and Co. Fall and Winter, 1941-42 Boston Edition. With all the fashion, home decor, and hardware of the period on display. This is a full size catalog, with 1280 pages! All original, in vintage condition with creases, soiling and some torn and cut pages.
The catalog is heavy, and an amazing reference book for any 1940s enthusiast or researcher.
I found this catalog very interesting as there is an effort to market Sears as a local Boston company. The front few pages are focusing on New England customers and Sears' contribution to the New England economy. There is also a discussion on the front leaf explaining that many of the materials needed for the National Defense Program may cause price increases.
