We had that almost until high school.<br /><br />The aluminum branches came in paper sleeves which crushed the needles flat to store. Pull off the sleeve and poke the branch into the trunk, repeat x 150 or so, voila. Tree.<br /><br />Looking back on it, it was weird. But everybody seemed to have one for a while.<br /><br />JGJGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15456196709930408585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29249921.post-15676436724246509102013-12-19T09:52:20.719-08:002013-12-19T09:52:20.719-08:00I was definitely thinking of "A Christmas Sto...I was definitely thinking of "A Christmas Story when looking at these photos.
