As an Englishman who has little knowledge of American culture, I have always
assumed that she meant that 97% of US households had a Sears and Roebuck
catalogue in the house. From those times to these I bet that the percentage
has not changed as I think you will find a mail order catalogue of some kind
or other in most UK homes.

Someone told me that they heard from a friend of someone else that
Dorothea Lange once stated, "97% of the population are Sears and Roebuck
Customers,"

If that's true, is it?  Then what did she mean?"
