Greetings! Thank you for joining us in order to preview an exceptionally scarce and distinctive mid-century Holiday and Seasonal treasure for any variety of collector and old home arsenal of Christmas wares. Offered here is an original (circa 1950-60) MR. CHRISTMAS - New York - Los Angeles artificial Christmas tree, manufactured of wrapped wire, wood, and white tinsel. The early (approximate 6’ height) Christmas Tree maintains the original box and is in surprisingly great condition f...or molding and shaping upon your skill and discretion. The tree is of two sections that secure together snug, with a wooden dowel end for the crown. The tinsel is supple, clean and of a bright sparkle white for aesthetic presentation. As to be expected with early tinsel trees, when you remove it from the box; you will see some subtle shedding. Fortunately there are billions of tinsel strands and the tree has maintained a remarkable dominance of original tinsel. The vintage Mr. Christmas tree does not have a stand. The one used in the photos is for presentation only. If you would like the stand; that could be arranged, although having an effect on shipping. The stand utilized for presentation is not vintage and it is all I had handy to display the tree for the photo op. The original box demonstrates extensive flap and box end wear; being rather brittle from generations in the attic. A nice piece to have in order for manufacturer identification and original quality; while showing inscriptions upon the box and general age detriment. The tree is in very good condition, having been pleasantly surprised about its durability and staying power. An attractive early Christmas original for any variety of collector; being functional for many years to come. The Mr. Christmas artificial tree is flame retardant. Be sure to stake a claim now or simply follow the vintage Christmas in July auction on your “Watch List”. Thank you for the kind bidness.
