Vintage Mid-Century Christmas Bulbs Set – Westinghouse, GEM & More (C7½) – Made in Japan & USA
Cue the sleigh bells and dust off the tinsel! You’ve stumbled upon a treasure trove of vintage holiday magic that’ll make any collector or vintage Christmas aficionado swoon. This delightful set of retro Christmas bulbs – yes, ACTUAL mid-century marvels – is here to bring on some SERIOUS holiday nostalgia. And we’re not talking about any run-of-the-mill string lights. Oh no. These are the real deal: bold ceramic-glazed colors, factory-tested durability, and packaging so retro it feels like you just stepped into a 1950s department store.
Here’s the scoop: we’re bundling together four (yes, FOUR!) sets of C7½ indoor bulbs from iconic brands like Westinghouse and GEM for a total of 18 fab lights! These brilliant bulbs hail from the golden age of Christmas decorating, with some sets made in Japan for McCrory Corp. and others proudly manufactured in the USA. Each box boasts quirky mid-century typography, nostalgic color schemes (that pink GEM box – hello?, kitsch perfection!), and even original price tags (66¢ – can you believe it?).
The bulbs themselves? A vibrant mix of red, blue, orange, and white with ceramic finishes that scream “Mad Men holiday party!” Picture these beauties twinkling on your aluminum Christmas tree, or maybe just use them as conversation-starting decor in their original boxes. Seriously, these aren’t just lights – they’re time capsules. And - as someone who proudly and absolutely adores retro graphic design and typography - it would be a cryin’ shame NOT to admire this packaging!
Collectors, take note: you’ll love the variety and condition here. And for the giftiest of gift-givers, imagine the joy of passing these along to the vintage lover in your life (bonus points if you pair them with a Bing Crosby record for maximum holiday vibes). For you decorators chasing that perfect mid-mod aesthetic, these bulbs are a finishing touch that’ll make your tree, wreath, or mantle display absolutely unforgettable (or mid-mod fab).
Whether you’re rewiring them for action or simply displaying them as emblems of Christmas past, this set is bursting with retro charm and originality. But hurry – sets like these are harder to find than a snowstorm in July. Once they’re gone, they’re gone!
