Sears Homes
The Grundy County Historical Society is hosting Rebecca Hunter, who will present “Sears Homes.”
Author, researcher and lecturer Rebecca Hunter became fascinated with the phenomenon of mail order homes in 1996, and is currently engaged in the study of kit homes and agricultural buildings marketing from 1906 - 1982 by nine different companies. Hunter has sought these buildings throughout Illinois, Wisconsin, and Michigan; and in many other states. Rebecca has located mail order buildings in over 400 Illinois municipalities and in 29 other states.
Her books, Putting Sears Homes on the Map and Sears, Roebuck Book of Barns were published in 2004 and 2005 respectively. Mail Order Homes was published in 2012. She is planning books on Harris Brother Mail order buildings and Gordon-Van Tine barns.
