Gary's father bought the first model....first two buttons on the left side controlled channels and volume.

Third button was to yell at baby Gary > S T F UP

Last button on right > leave Gary in his poop filled diaper for another two hours while the Lone Ranger show was on....

I remember the Sears catalog clear as day, but do not remember seeing houses in it. That must have been before my time.

I worked at Sears in shipping and receiving, it was one of my first jobs.

One winter we where getting a huge snow storm, they ran out of snow blowers. The manager asked if anyone wanted to take a trip to Boston to pick up a Uhaul load of snow blowers,,, I volunteered,,, it was the craziest ride I have ever been on. 1970 Ford Uhaul,,, forget the model but it was huge. Snowed on the way there and blizzard on the way back. The defroster and heat did not work so well,, I was the interior window wiper,, lol. Store manager called me in his office the next day and handed me a $100 check for putting my life on the line,,,lol. Those where some great memories.

I was just reading about the Sears Roebuck Homes. Over 70,000 were shipped out. There were about 150 different homes to pick from. We have a 1914 Bungalow that we believe might be one because there exists an identical home in Eugene, Oregon about 100 miles away. We have recently purchased a copy of the 1913 Sears Roebuck Homes Catalog. It should be here in about a week.
