A Griffin Fuel Company driver filled the heating oil tank at the Sears Exhibition Home at 1920 North Union Avenue on October 9, 1937, the day before the house opened for public viewing. The building was not a Sears "kit" house. It was designed by Stanley T. Shaw, architect, and built with material purchased in the Tacoma area. By building this demonstration house, Sears hoped to show what could be done locally to create a modern, comfortable and convenient home. All the furnishings throughout the building's eight rooms were supplied by Sears, as were the heating, electrical and plumbing supplies. Over three October Sundays, nearly 16,000 people toured the house. (T. Times, 10/9/1937, p. 5)
