They used to call the Sears Catalog "The Wish Book."
These days Christie's Catalog is my idea of a Wish Book
But it all comes down to one wish.

Christie's produces catalogs with exceptional production qualities. Whatever appears in one of the catalogs acquires immediate provenance and helps to assess value. Bottom line is that they're just lovely and interesting to page through.
