Remember Aluminum Christmas Trees?

[Cailin]

They're apparently in vogue again!

Have Yourself a Merry Tinny Christmas

Yes, I remember them. My parents had one when I was a kid, they had one of those floor lights with a color disc with blue, green, red and orange that rotated and turned the tree each color.

My parents bought one, too...in the late 60s, I think, maybe early 70s. They only used it two consecutive years, and only got the color wheel the second year. My dad didn't like it at all, and the color wheel didn't change his mind.

Me and my siblings didn't like it much, either...in large part because we looked forward every year to going up to the mountains with Dad to cut our own tree.

No, we didn't have one growing up. My sister collects them and their color wheels.
