​Deb, how cool. I do not remember ornaments like the animals, but I remember the others. WOW.

I often see those types in Charity shops here ..I think there may still be some in my loft too from years gone by

I have quite a few of those also. Have not put up a large tree in years but want to keep those old ones anyway.

Deb,

Are the plastic animals made with that radioactive glow in the dark plastic from the 50's.

I remember that we used to have these little glow in the dark icicles that looked similar.

I remember those icicles! We thought those were the cat's meow.

Deb,

Well, they do glow in the dark, but I have no way to measure if they are radioactive.

Most people remember the Noma lights that bubbled.

A lovely collection of tree ornaments Deb.
I remember some like those being on the tree when I was growing up.

Takes me back to my childhood. Impressed you still have them after all these years.

Impressed you still have them after all these years.

I had a lot more years ago. When I cleaned out the attic in my parent's house (mine now), there must have been 10 boxes of them. I took out the ones I waned to keep and tried to sell the rest. It took a while and I ended up selling them for $1 a box and the guy complained about that.
