I bought my wife a pair of work boots, work gloves and an ax when we were first married. Oh and a penny for the ax. We were clearing a lot for a house we were building. She had said she wanted to help. It was near her birthday. She loved them. And yes we are still married 40+ years later.

Circa 1965, my dad gave mom an electric frying pan for Christmas. It flew from one end of the room to the other.

Didn't they sell dogs too? And chicks?

My best memory of the Sears catalog was that the yellow pages made the best toilet paper (outhouse behind the church...)
