So, how did one learn about the more unusual catalogs back then? Everyone had a Sears catalog of course, and a few others, but how did you know about the existance of the Oceanic Arts catalog (if you weren't from California), much less get one? Was it all word of mouth & learning about it through travel to California? Or did companies that sold through catalogs have a particular way to advertise?
