An American (sorry, "United States-an") institution for much of this century (or was it more than a century? I can't remember), they stopped printing them within the past couple years. Interestingly enough, I've seen older Sears catalogues from--you guessed it--the 'sixties, and couldn't help but admire that sharp, ivy league button-down style. I wouldn't be at all surprised to find that *somebody* on this list has a collection of them. >> I have a lovely copy of a '66 Sears catalogue and its full of amazing clothes. I often find great vintage dresses with a Sears label in them as well. For those of you in Britain -one might compare a Sears to a Marks & Spencers. Jessika
