I recently bought a 1908 Sears Roebuck catalog at auction. They made a reproduction of this catalog in the 90s but this one was the real deal. Front cover was gone and back few pages damaged pretty badly, but the 900+ pages in between have some really cool stuff. I decided that given the lack of cover the best thing to do with this may be to "part it out". I have been removing selected pages and framing them. Will post my first few that I have done.
Here is a page from the fishing section along with an old fly fishing reel and some of my old lures
