The ones from Sears and Penney's.

I still own a 1970 Penney's catalog, lots of toys I had when I was 10!

Penney's was my favorite. That one must be fun to look at today. I probably still have the toy and electronics sections memorized.

We also got the Sears and Wards catalogs, but they just weren't as good

Fortunately I have a waste basket right next to the door. It's a shame that so much paper is being wasted - though at least they provide income for USPS.
