Answer: Catalogs
Explanation:
In 1872, Aaron Montgomery Ward took advantage of the growing shipping business in America to establish the Montgomery Ward Company.
The company's modus operandi was to showcase goods in a catalog and distribute it to people who would then order the products they liked. The company would then deliver it by rail.
Starting with a single-sheet catalog that offered only 163 items, the company grew to serve 3 million customers by the year 1904 and are still in existence today.

The 282 laws are one of the earliest and more complete written legal codes from ancient times. The codes have served as a model for establishing justice in other cultures and are believed to have influenced laws established by Hebrew scribes, including those in the Book of Exodus. The codes were originally carved into a massive monolith of black diorite, eight feet high. Lost for centuries after the fall of Babylon in 1595 BCE, the pillar was rediscovered in ruins of the Elamite city of Susa in 1901.
