Sears, Roebuck, and Company's Consumer Guide: Fall 1900 edition features every object that you can keep at home and how much it costs. This edition is a miniature reproduction of their 1900 catalog to be used as a historical document to portray how life was back then. This book acts as a small glimpse into the culture of the 1900s by presenting everything that existed in America. Since this is a reproduction, there are a few page number gaps.
The front/back cover consists of red, orange, yellow, blue, and black ink with an older art-style drawing of the American countryside with a woman holding a cornucopia filled with objects. The inside is only filled with black ink and contains clean-cut images and text of each object, their description, and how much it cost.
