Truly a browser's delight - sometimes amusing, sometimes startling, always engaging...Tells us as much about the way we lived a century ago as most history books do - and it's much more fun to read., A dazzling trove for students of Americana. It certainly is one of the happiest publishing ideas in years.

Synopsis
Imagine it's the end of the nineteenth century, and, with one catalog, you can buy everything from beds and tools to clothing and opium. (Yes, opium.) Not to mention ear trumpets, horse buggies, and Bibles. The 1897 Sears, Roebuck & Co. Catalogue is both a wonderfully fascinating collector's item and a valuable piece of American history. For every recognizable item included, there are plenty of others guaranteed to confuse or interest 21st century readers--like Bust Cream or Food and Sweet Spirits of Nitre . What was once standard household fare is today a sometimes strange, often funny look at what life was once like for the average American family. It's amazing to see that a Princely Shirt for Princely Men cost $0.95 or three for $2.75 or that a Complete Violin Outfit (with bow and case) cost only $2.00.

Ordered ADAM -12 tv series season one from them and they shipped it out fast and well wrapped up for the journey. It arrived earlier than listed and in perfect condition. I got it for more than half the price as it was selling new, and cheeper than the other used ones were. They listed it as GOOD, but it was easily a VERY GOOD , as new minus the wrapper. Great seller and series
