Default Retro Sears Catalog

Someone with little time on their hands has started scanning every page of the huge catalogs from years past.

Some neat stuff...CD players in the 1983 catalog for $570, as it was brand new technology. All sorts of neat stuff that will take you back down memory lane if you're anywhere older the 30.

Not too much Cancon on there, but here's a link to the 1979 Sears Canada catalogue. Page 370 on, is classic menswear. 26" Console TV a whopping $969..29 years ago thats a lot of dough.

Only being 3 at the time, but always loved getting those new catalogs in Spring, Fall, and Christmas, especially Canadian Tire and Consumers Distrubuting growing up in the 80's.

Hopefully this person continues to be unemployed and unemployable, and have access to more old stuff like this.
