Introduced to the market in 1959 by the Aluminum Specialty Company of Manitowoc, Wisconsin, the aluminum Christmas tree soon became a staple in people's homes at Christmas time. Many people still enjoy these interesting trees even today. They were quite popular in the 60s for their “sleek” and “modern” style as compared to regular Christmas trees.
They were also very popular because they were so easy to put up and take back down and did not require a lot of decorating. It was a time when people were all about ease and convenience so they loved this. There are so many different types of aluminum Christmas trees as well- tabletop versions, wall mounted versions, and free-standing versions in four foot, five foot, six foot, seven foot and even eight foot sizes. There is literally an aluminum tree for anyone.
There were also color wheels that came with the aluminum trees. The color wheels came in several varieties, with plastic cases, metal cases, glass wheels, plastic wheels and even combination color wheel/stand units. While most were intended to be mounted on the floor, some could be mounted on the wall, as well.
Today there are not many companies that are still producing aluminum Christmas trees, although there are some. You can however, purchase the vintage ones that were made in the past. Some people even enjoy them so much that they like to collect them as a hobby. It can be like a treasure hunt to search for different types of aluminum trees. There are certain ones and certain colors (such as pink) that were rarer and are worth more today if you do find them.
A good time to shop for aluminum Christmas trees is during the off-season as there is less demand and you will have more selection. It will be easier to find what you are looking for and you can probably get it at a better price. Remember that if you want something different than the standard silver, you might be in for more of a search because the colored ones are harder to find and go quickly when they are available in stores.
