Sears Model Homes -- Between 1908 and 1940, Sears, Roebuck and Co. sold as many as 100,000 build-it-yourself kit homes: Order one up and a full 30,000 pieces, including 750 pounds of nails and 27 gallons of paint and varnish, were sent to your plot of land. A 75-page instruction book showed you how to assemble it. One of them still stands at the corner of Jewett and Parkside, across from Delaware Park.
