{"product_id":"sears-roebuck-and-co-luggage-tag","title":"Sears, Roebuck and Co Luggage Tag","description":"GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eConnect your travels with a company that helped bring American shopping into homes across the country. Founded as a mail-order watch business, Sears grew into a catalog and retail name recognized across generations. Its story stretches from Chicago beginnings to department stores, familiar household brands, and a dramatically changed retail landscape. This luggage tag offers a thoughtful nod to that history for collectors, travelers, and anyone who remembers browsing the Sears catalog or visiting its stores.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFounded in 1892 by Richard Warren Sears and Alvah Curtis Roebuck, the business began as a mail-order watch company in Minneapolis. The partners moved it to Chicago in 1887, and in 1893 named their expanding catalog business Sears, Roebuck and Co. Julius Rosenwald joined the enterprise in 1895; Sears and Rosenwald took it public in 1906. Sears opened its first retail store in Chicago in 1925, adding department stores to its established mail-order operation. Its catalog and stores offered a broad range of household goods, while brands such as Kenmore and Craftsman became part of its retail identity. Sears was the largest U.S. retailer through the 1980s, before Walmart surpassed it. In 2005, Kmart acquired Sears, creating Sears Holdings. The parent company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy on October 15, 2018. Eddie Lampert later won approval to acquire the business, and Transformco took over operations. The U.S. chain contracted sharply; the article reports five Sears stores remaining in the United States as of December 2025. The Sears name also continues under independent ownership in Mexico and Guatemala.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"1\" style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"1\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; font-weight: 500;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e2.4'' × 4''\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"2\" style=\"word-break: break-word; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003eWidth, in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"2\" style=\"word-break: break-word; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003e2.40\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"3\" style=\"word-break: break-word; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003eHeight, in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"3\" style=\"word-break: break-word; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003e4.00\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"4\" style=\"word-break: break-word; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003eDepth, in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"4\" style=\"word-break: break-word; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003e0.20\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduct features\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Durable 100% acrylic body with glossy printed front\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Adjustable black leather strap with buckle\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- One-side high-definition print in vibrant colors\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Rear opening pocket for business card or contact info\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Compact size 2.4” × 4” (6 × 10 cm)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCare instructions\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Wipe with a damp cloth, air dry or use a soft, non-abrasive cloth\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEU representative\u003c\/strong\u003e: HONSON VENTURES LIMITED, gpsr@honsonventures.com, 3, Gnaftis House flat 102, Limassol, Mesa Geitonia, 4003, CY\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct information\u003c\/strong\u003e: Generic brand, two year warranty in the EU and Northern Ireland\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare instructions\u003c\/strong\u003e: Wipe with a damp cloth, air dry or use a soft, non-abrasive cloth\t\t\t\t\t\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Printify","offers":[{"title":"2.4'' × 4''","offer_id":54717861658908,"sku":"29413413795621088342","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0955\/2517\/5580\/files\/4573253662376187480_2048.jpg?v=1792225770","url":"https:\/\/ghostcorpapparel.com\/products\/sears-roebuck-and-co-luggage-tag","provider":"Ghost Corp Apparel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
