My Aunt and Uncle had one and the danged thing glowed all the way down to our house...4 houses away and I believe that they even had their curtains closed... rofllol rofllol
Can't say I ever had one of those... I'd rather cut a fresh tree the week before Christmas and turn it in to firewood on New Years day.
I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you.
"Any man who thinks he can be happy and prosperous by letting the Government take care of him; better take a closer look at the American Indian." - Henry Ford

My grandparents had one just like that and with the color changing lamp. I think it was easier to manage for older people than a fresh cut tree. Trees with dropping needles were too common in sunny Florida.
This picture sure brings back memories of Christmas time when they were alive. Thanks for posting.
We never had one like that....but I do remember the year I came home from college and my mom had a white tree with all pink and rose decorations. My brother and I gave her such grief she never tried that again. My dad, ever the diplomat, was silent on the whole issue.
We got one when they first came out. We loved that thing. We loved sitting in from of the color wheel and watching our faces change colors. Thanks for bringing back that priceless memory!
