Holiday lights in the 1920s


The whimsical packaging on this 1920s set of lights suggests that in addition to Christmas trees, they may also be used for May Parties, the 4th of July and what appears to be quite the Thanksgiving day hoe-down (click on image to enlarge).
For more info on 1920s holiday lighting, visit this cool website.
And, don't forget our own holiday shindig. There will not be a December WRBN meeting, but mark your calendar now for our Saturday, January 12th WRBN members-only holiday party! Your $15.00 (per family) 2008 dues payment is your ticket to the food and festivities. Invitations are on the way...
