Silver Christmas tree 1957 stainless steel aluminum vintage retro train around for the tree baby boomers
This tree has been in my family since 1957. My Dad bought it from Zigfield Troy. Mr. Troy owned a golf driving range on 111th & Halsted in Roseland Illinois and he was selling his silver trees at the range. This is actually made of stainless steel. I wanted to film this for my sisters who grew up with this tree after my Dad got tired of buying flocked ones. My Dad and Mom are 81 and 80 respectively so they have seen many a white Christmas! Some of the ornaments are old, many are new. Sorry I didn't run the color wheel but it's too noisy and I like the clatter of the train better. My sons had fun setting the train and trolley up with their Dad. Merry Christmas to you all especially all the baby boomers!!!
