Welcome to our latest urban photography adventure as we embark on a journey to an enchanting abandoned Eaton’s catalogue house nestled in the heart of Saskatchewan, Canada. Join us as we explore the rich history of this mail-order marvel from the 1910s and 1920s while capturing its hauntingly beautiful allure at sunset.

In the early 20th century, Eaton’s, among other companies, offered mail-order houses that became a symbol of convenience and innovation. While Sears Roebuck dominated the United States, Eaton’s was a prominent player in the Canadian market. Other Western Canadian companies, such as B.C. Mills Timber and Trading Co. and the United Grain Growers, also contributed to this architectural phenomenon. However, the Canadian Aladdin Company proved to be Eaton’s main rival in the mail-order house business.

As we step into this time capsule, we’ll take you on a visual journey through the history of these mail-order houses. Our expert guide will reveal intriguing anecdotes and fascinating facts about the architecture, design, and construction methods that shaped these homes over a century ago.

The magic of this adventure intensifies as we explore the abandoned Eaton’s catalogue house at sunset. The golden rays of the setting sun cast an ethereal glow, bringing life to the decaying walls and making for a photographer’s dream canvas. Our lenses will capture the contrast between the past and present, the beauty of architectural decay, and the serenity that surrounds these forgotten dwellings.

Not only will we photograph the exterior, but we’ll also venture inside the house (where safe and permissible) to uncover hidden treasures and remnants of the lives once lived within these walls. The combination of light and shadow at dusk creates a surreal ambiance, igniting our creativity to produce breathtaking images.

As we commemorate the legacy of these mail-order houses, we’ll pay tribute to the families that once called these houses “home” and explore the impact of this architectural revolution on the Canadian landscape.

If you’re a history enthusiast, urban explorer, or photography lover seeking to capture the essence of the past, this is a journey you won’t want to miss. Join us on our YouTube channel for an unforgettable experience as we document the story of an abandoned Eaton’s catalogue house in Saskatchewan and embrace the charm of this bygone era.
