Richard Sears and Alvah Roebuck decided to start a company together--hence the name of the store and company.
Walton's five and dime
Sears started as only a mail order store and for a long time it was the first and only one. They began in Chicago because that is where the central rail hub was and they would ship throughout the US by rail everything from dolls to a house kit. They made a catalog that would fit nicely on a table along with the other book people kept out, the Bible. Later, JC Penney came along and they made their catalog smaller than the Sears so the Sears would be under the Penney's catalog on the table. For years they were the only two catalog companies in the US.
How can I order a catalog?
Sears trade name is strike one. Bolt action is strike two. Value will start around $25 and may go as high as $100 if it is like new.
Sears sold several different model pellet pistols. First you need to identity the model number. It will start with 126 or 799. Then you need the give it some sort of rating like Poor, Fair, Good, Very Good or Excellent. Then state if it is still holding air and what working condition it's in.
Most of the time you can sign up for these catalogs at near by home stores or on their websites. One I find particularly nice for gifts is called Room Service Home. With direct marketing lists, your name will probably be distributed through out home interior publications and you'll be surprised how many start arriving in your mailbox.

To be a catalog model you will need to have a good modeling agency representing you. Your agent will find you work with clients that are in need of catalog models.

Start by finding an Avon representative. Usually if you have an Avon catalog the representatives name and phone number are located on the back of the catalog. If it is something you recieved via the mail or there is no representative you can order online or call the number in the catalog.
