Browsing a reprint of a 1909 Sears, Roebuck & Company catalogue to continue last night's enjoyment.
And while it's too long for me to reference word to word right now, they did not only change the company name between 1897 and 1909, they also bought a damn RAILROAD TERMINAL just for their own wares.
Also, paraphrased: "We don't put our brand name on any of your parcels etc. because we respect that people don't want other people to know where you shop!" Times have changed.
