Merry Christmas - 2007



From all of us here at the Preserve, we hope that you have the very merriest of Christmas holidays with your family and friends. May you have received all that your heart desired, both material and intangible, in the throes of the conclusion of a good year.

Being that we have finally reached the big day, it seems only right to bring up the most hallowed of product catalogs, the Sears Wish Book. This veritable bible of awesomeness from the Greatest Decade (and of course well before) now stands as a one stop shop to provide a cross section of products, designs and fads for each year in which it was released.

While the plan had been to provide the readers of the Preserve with detailed photographic archives of some of these amazing historical documents in time for the holidays, please make due for now with what appears to be the entire contents, every page, of the 1985 Wish Book, from wishBookWeb.com. A labor of love, to be sure, and I am delighted that we can spend this Christmas flipping through this 22 year old document that highlights some of the best products ever made. God bless us, every one.
