This is the Way a Sears Winona is Supposed to Look

It's so refreshing when you come across a Sears bungalow that hasn't lost its original charm after 90 years. This Sears Winona in Aurora exemplifies why Sears houses were so popular with American consumers in the 1920's.

The original owners were Harvey and Anna Harding. They got a mortgage in August of 1923, which means the house was probably built in fall of that year.
