THEY LOOK THIN WHEN INITIAL PICTURES ARE TAKEN BUT THE BRANCHES HAVEN'T HAD TIME TO "RELAX" AND BECOME FULLER. BEST TO PUT THEM UP A LITTLE EARLY TO GIVE THEM TIME TO EXPAND! ALL OF THE TREES I HAVE LISTED WERE PURCHASED OVER THE SUMMER FROM THE MANY ESTATE SALES WE HAVE HERE IN THE MIDWEST- SO THE MAJORITY OF THEM WERE FROM ELDERLY OWNERS (AGES 60'S THRU 90'S) WHO HAD STORED AWAY FOR YEARS!THIS VINTAGE 1960'S 6' PECO "DELUXE CHRISTMAS PINE" SPARKLING LIFETIME ALUMINUM TREE HAS 91 "POM POM" BRANCHES, PAPER SLEEVES, 2 SILVER WOODEN POLES AND THE TRIPOD STAND. I PURCHASED IT AT THE ESTATE SALE OF A 84 YEAR OLD LOCAL MAN. FAMILY MEMBERS SAID IT'S BEEN STORED FOR YEARS.I NOTICED THAT SOME OF THE SLEEVES ARE ORIGINALS AND SOME WERE MADE OUT OF BROWN PAPER. WHOEVER DID THIS MADE MANY OF THEM A LITTLE SMALL FOR THE FULLNESS OF THE BRANCHES AND WERE HARD TO GET OUT OF THE SLEEVE. THESE PECO TREE BRANCHES ARE MANUFACTURED AS A STRIP OF ALUMINUM, THEN ONE SIDE IS CUT TO DEVELOP THE THOUSANDS OF STRANDS.
