Once again, Sears has made history. For the first time, Sears has opened the doors to its vast archival collection and invited the public to peek inside. More than 100 years of history now available online.
Sears has a rich, long history
to tell dating back to 1886 when Richard Sears sold the first batch of watches. The milestones, introductions and stories fill volumes. However, we've boiled Sears history down to a short
narrative and event timeline for you: Sears narrative
history tells the story of the founding of Sears and the Sears
chronology is an up-to-date primer of Sears milestones and events. Both
sections span from 1886 to today.
The site will be updated frequently, so be sure to bookmark www.searsarchives.com.
Enjoy your trip through the Sears Archives!
