BY SPECIAL REQUEST: THE EATON'S CATALOG 1920/1921

A special request for an index to the toy pages from the "Eaton" catalog 1920/1921--CLICK ON THE PHOTO.  

For those who don't know, Eaton's a.k.a. T. Eaton Co. Limited was once Canada's largest department store retailer. It was started in 1869 by Timothy Eaton, a Presbyterian Ulster Scot immigrant from what is known now as Northern Ireland. Eaton's grew to become a retail and social institution in Canada, with stores across the country, buying offices around the globe, and a catalog that was found in the homes of most Canadians. Sadly, the company went bankrupt in 1999.
