Sears, Roebuck Barn Mail Order Barn
Chicago monolith Sears, Roebuck & Company was truly the farm family's friend, offering everything from girdles to guitars, baby chicks to barns through its voluminous mail-order catalog-which itself then served double-duty in the outhouse.
These Sears barn kits included do-it yourself plans, doors, glass windows, and pre-cut fir, hemlock, and cypress boards that were numbered to aid easy assembly.
As this ad proclaimed, "Just as the sickle has been replaced successively by the cradle, the self rake and the binder, so the old time, wasteful, not ready cut system of construction is being replaced by our modern and economical 'Honor Bilt' Already Cut buildings."
