    13 Great Gifts from the Sears Wishbook 1974-1987



    The annual TOYHEM series of articles kicks off at 13th Dimension with my personal journey through my parents' favorite Christmas shopping tool, the Sears Wishbook. I pick an item from each of my 13 years I did receive, or would have liked to have received from that fabled tome. And my wife Cindy brings balance by spotlighting her favorites as well!

          I remember that Strawberry Shortcake page.
          You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

            I don't think I recall Sears catalogs as vividly as I do, for example, JC Penney. But I certainly remember the Clash of the Titans feature.
