1967 Montgomery Ward Christmas Catalog

I bought a 1967 edition of the Montgomery Ward Christmas catalog on eBay. It was the year I turned 9 years old. Remembering how I eagerly awaited those pages filled with advertisements for model airplanes, boats, guns, Erector sets, and countless other things, I figured it might be nice to look through one again. Here is the 1967 Montgomery Ward Christmas Catalog, the 1969 Montgomery Ward Christmas Catalog and the 1969 Sears Christmas Wish Book. Enjoy!

Like many little girls who were born in the 1960s, Melanie had a small collection of Suzy Homemaker toy appliances. Old photographs from birthdays and Christmases past document the times they were received. Melanie had the Suzy Homemaker Oven / Stove and the Suzy Homemaker Clothes Iron. Since hers was long gone my the time we got married in 1983, we decided to look for them on eBay. As with just about everything ever made, we easily found them in nice condition. Neither the oven nor the iron came with their original boxes because those are very expensive.

This page of Suzy Homemaker products appeared in the 1967 edition of the Montgomery Ward Christmas catalog. The $13.99 price for the oven in 1967 is equivalent to $102.29 in 2018, per the Bureau of Labor Statistics' Inflation Calculator. Based on that, we paid a good price (somewhere around $40).
