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."
