Papa6058 Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 While in Sacramento dealing with my Dad passing last week I found a few Christmas decorations that I remember from my childhood. (I am now raising teenaged granddaughters) Here are a few very very old indoor Christmas light strings! I think they are very cool, so I thought I would share.

rainyoregonchristmas Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 DOOOoooh no edit button.... I saw the msg after the pic and I had posted.... sorry for your loss..... I too love the old lights I got these from a 100 yr old furniture shop in town that had closed down. They used to be in their window for years, the things they saw in town.... Can't wait for EDIT to be back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think those might be from the original NOMA company, one of the first suppliers of Christmas lights.
