"Sears Houses" of Steuben County

A house by mail? Well, sort of. Looking back a century and more, mail-order outlets such as Sears, Roebuck offered numerous sets of detailed plans for building your own house...AND, if you chose, you could order the entire set of materials needed for each model. Since there were only so many models at a given time, many of these houses can still be recognized. Steve Cotton will give us an illustrated presentation on these houses...including examples, still in use, that he's scouted out locally!
