As Pictured in Sears Catalogs
Edited by JoAnne Olian

A Partial Synopsis from Good Reads: Few publications illustrate so comprehensively what American men, women, and children wore in the 1940s than the Sears catalogs of those years, when the company's fashions typified the tastes of the American mainstream. This book is a compilation of 122 fully illustrated and captioned pages selected and reproduced from rare copies of Sears catalogs of the World War II era.
My Thoughts: What a fun little picture book of vintage fashion! I had to smile at the ballerina dresses. Fit and flare is a flattering classic look to this day!

I'm not reading anything, but I wish I was! I miss it when I don't have something to read at night. I just haven't had time or taken the time, not sure which. Nothing better than a good book!
