        My grandfather used to work for Sears, Roebuck & Co. designing kit homes. I have his drafting tools and Architects' & Builders' Handbook. #HistoryRocks

        I remember waiting anxiously for the annual Sears Christmas catalogue, which was huge and PACKED with toys.

        This would be great to house a planetarium. But that's just me.

        That's a huge barn for about $25K in today's dollars. Prices have gone way beyond inflation.

        We have lots of round barns in Wisconsin - I wonder how many were from Sears?

        The irony is that Sears gave up their catalog business and infrastructure just when internet shopping was about to be born. They could have been Amazon now.

        They could do this because train tracks went everywhere, and most farmers had multiple skills.

        The "Catalogue'" also had the craftsman style log cabins. They looked neat. When living on basically isolated Edwards AFB, mom ordered all of our clothes from The Book. She'd tell us to circle what we wanted but no toys. Ha.That was the Xmas one.
