Matt Groening’s early work was pretty commercial…
Haha, I know you essentially make the same joke in the first 30 seconds.
I like these, also find it fascinating when Youtubers like LazyGamerReviews (LGR) look at old Best Buy and Radio Shack circulars.
Last one from the 1980s felt very nostalgic, I may be old, but this catalog predates even me by a few decades!
Interesting Video.
We’ve had a catalog from the 80’s and one from the 50’s. Now, if we could get one from the 1880’s and one from the 2010’s we’ll have covered the entire Back to the Future timeline.
Don’t order a Montreal Canadians jersey from the Sears catalog. There’s a chance they’ll send you a Maple Leafs one instead.
Pretty sure I saw one of those 1956 Sears fruitcakes unopened on eBay once…
