Re: The wishbook - one cool thing about Read Five’s book in Kenner Star Wars figures, is they have the relevant pages from various catalogs, including Sears from every year they had vintage toys listed. Pretty cool!

Approximately 12 seconds between page turns x 1,500 videos x number of pages per magazine (and one Vogue is Ike what? 17 Seventeen’s?) = I ain’t got time for this, man.

The ASMR crowd may find it soothing. I reckon it may have some utility as a research tool, or just general interest, but I need to flip through the pages and stop where I want. Chapter breaks every 12 seconds? Scrubbing through the video? Neither are ideal.
Sears Christmas cataloge from 1977.
