From 1908 to 1942, Sears Roebuck and Company sold about 70,000 ready-to-build kit homes through catalogs. Despite the rash of teardowns in the Chicago area, some of these houses managed to survive. In this presentation, you will learn about what a Sears house is (and isn’t), how to authenticate one, and common misconceptions about these houses. A special focus will be on the Sears houses in the Huntley area.
