Beautiful collection! I love this old Christmas stuff. I've got several strings of old lights, a number of vintage tree toppers including the star of Bethlehem like yours, and a vast color wheel/aluminum tree collection. I saw your color wheels hiding on a shelf there!! Would love to come...

Add me to the list of those wanting to come and explore! Very nice collection. That pink GE cannister vacuum is the one I grew up with. Last time I saw it it was in mom and dad's basement with rust and peeling paint. Wish I had rescued it before it was in such bad shape. What is the air...

I had an AMC air conditioner many years ago. It was a 5,000 BTU unit in a small cabinet made to fit casement windows. It was quiet and powerful for the size. The data plate read AIMCEE....

Then the 1957 Coldspot "Slenderette" model. Not currently installed but I crank it up periodically the keep the juices flowing and keep looking for the opportunity to put it to use somewhere.

Here are my 2. Both work as they should, are very quiet, and are used occasionally in my workshop. First up is a 1960's GE, rather bottom of the line but gets the job done

Way to go Fred. You've got some nice ones there! Thanks for sharing

Cory, I don't have the type color wheel you're talking about but I am familiar with them. I've seen those on Ebay mfg. by Evergleam, Noma, and Magic Lantern. Cadman, I've only seen pictures of the stand/color wheel you described..made by Evergleam I do believe, but I've never actually seen one.

A brand new Sony laptop, some new jeans (badly needed!) and something rarely seen in Alabama....A WHITE CHRISTMAS!!! It has been snowing a very wet snow most of the day. The trees, lawns, roofs, etc are looking very Christmassy. So far the roads are still passable but temps are predicted to...

Wow! Thanks for the kind remarks. Tim, yes I have flood light or spot light bulbs in most of my color wheels. Most of them came equipped with 150 watt spot lights. I've toned these down to 120 or 100 watt bulbs in most of them to reduce heat. I have seen color wheels damaged from heat but...

Feel free to move this to "As the tub turns" if that's where it should be. I thought that's where I was posting it to!

Then the Holly Times: The one on the far right is the one I grew up with. My parents bought it along with our 7 foot PECO pom pom aluminum tree (which I still have)from JC Penneys in December of 1964--I was in the first grade!

Through my years of visiting AWO, I've enjoyed everyone's collections of washers, dryers, dishwashers, mixers, and so forth. Thought I'd share some pictures of my unusual collection--color wheel made for aluminum Christmas trees. These have fascinated me all my life. When these trees were the...

You will love it! We bought this same vac new and it's been our daily driver with only one repair needed. Great machine.
