Congratulations You've found the new home of the Yule Lights Collection. Be sure to bookmark the site.
Welcome to my website showcasing a Christmas lighting collection from the postwar baby boom era , which is from the 1950s to the 1980s when inexpensive miniature light sets became popular. Unlike other websites devoted to those extreme Christmas displays that you can see from outer space, this site only showcases vintage sets. We are in a transition era. Just as carbon filament bulbs were replaced by tungsten bulbs almost a century ago, these are now being replaced by L.E.D. bulbs or light emitting diodes. Click on the buttons below to enter the past and enjoy!
