So when I had the Dolls in hand, I set out to find a 1964 Sears Christmas Catalog as a companion piece. It took some time but I was finally able to locate one, as is shown in the scans below...

Jimmy,
You are effing amazing. This is a great Beatles ensamble! I love the original Sears packaging and 1964 catalogue!!
I think this is the exact Sears catalogue that my first GI Joe (Navy) was ordered from. That was my best Christmas that I remember as a kid. I remember it like it was yesterday.
BTW, does anyone else remember the excitement of looking through the Sears Christmas catalogue for the first time every year like I do? Those were great times!!
