Notes on Sears Homes: A Visit to Music Mountain
Description:
From the 1920's to 1940, Sears was shipping complete kits for building homes. The kit included all the lumber, drywall and bulding materials required to build a complete house. The lumber was precut, to reduce installation costs.

This is brief story of how the paths of these to organizations crossed.
