Cool
Is there anything that at one time or another Sears did not sell?
I have to say I really enjoy this forum. I am not quite old enough to remember a lot of the things posted here but I am now finding a lot of them on the service calls I make. It is cool to know some of the history of them. Hard to fathom some of the installations given today's demands on the electric system. Thanks again and keep posting and I will keep looking.
I wonder if Creighton had a hand in the authorship!?
Excellent! I love finding old books such as this.
Apart from being a fascinating read, in years to come they'll provide an interesting insight into historical aspects of electricity in the home.
P.S. Any chance of posting a few scans of anything inside that looks particularly interesting?

They are missing a wire on those poles.
There is usually a fourth for the yard lights. I can probably show pictures of our farm wiring, done in '52, although it is getting long in the tooth, and redone somewhat.
That book reminded me of old times. Wards sold a very similar book that I read in high school. Those 2 places did sell almost everything. I'm getting my late mom's house ready to sell and noticed it has a Power Craft (Wards) subpanel in the basement. That from the mid 70's
