My Grandparents bought one of those around 1956 or so but it was ALUMINUM not Stainless. I thought they were all Aluminum. I still have the Color Wheel that they had for it but we took the tree to the dump in 1971

 

Ours is old , but new to us. Cool you kept it all these years.

 

I always thought they were aluminum?

 

Mine is boring old wood.....pine I think.

 

this guys may sell em

I have one from Walmart. It's all tinsel and silver. Got it 3 years ago. Only aluminum ones I find are over priced for a bunch shredded beer cans.

 

I had a run in with a table saw back in Sept. and had a nice x-ray of the 1/8th" blade kerf going through bone in my left index finger. I was lucky I didn't loose anything.
Really cool tree too !!! Love the Owl ornament.

 

That one ornament looks like a dildo with a face.

 

Ha!^^^

 

Glad you like the tree !

 

I love stuff from my youth ! God I am glad I am a baby-boomer ! Your Tree is nice, look like it is in great condition !

 

The rods are aluminum the bristles are stainless , It shorts out the Lionel train when it sheds !!!!

 

We are getting ready to set it back up the weekend !It was my wife's since she was born ,I have put it up for the last 26 years ! My wife & family loves the old stainless steel Christmas Tree !

Dammit man! It ain't even Thanksgiving yet!

 

Yea you ever try to assemble a 57 year old tree ? It takes a couple of days let alone the Lionel train ! LOL

 

Anyone else have a retro Christmas tree ?

 

I threw the old aluminum tree away a few years ago,,I got tired of being cut up just putting the damn thing together. HRP
