Sears Is Fading, But Memories Of Its Mail-Order Homes Endure

I live in a sears catalog Kit home -Modern Home #147, which had an addition (non-Sears) in 1932 and a second addition (non-Sears) in 1948

When I was in sales, our costing department told us we were losing on every sale and we needed to make more sales. We laughed at the thought of making it up in volume. Similar thing with Sears, they lost customer focus and became uncompetitive. They have been circling the drain for the last couple decades.

I REMEMBER SEARS!
