Hide Profile

Sears, Roebuck and Co., commonly known as Sears, is an American chain of department stores founded by Richard Warren Sears and Alvah Curtis Roebuck in 1892, and reincorporated by Richard Sears and Julius Rosenwald in 1906. Formerly based at the Sears Tower in Chicago and currently headquartered in Hoffman Estates, Illinois, the operation began as a mail ordering catalog company and began opening retail locations in 1925. The first location was in Chicago, Illinois. In 2005, the company was bought by the management of the American big box chain Kmart, which formed Sears Holdings upon completion of the merger.

Sears, Roebuck and Company was a competitor to the highly successful mail order company Montgomery Ward. By 1900, Sears, Roebuck was indeed outselling Ward's. Roebuck did not remain long with the company, but his name was retained. In 1908, Sears retired from the company as well. Although not the originator of the mail-order catalog, Sears, Roebuck and Company became quite successful in that business.

From the description of A trip through Sears, Roebuck & Co., ca.1905. (Winterthur Library). WorldCat record id: 261235211
