Electric Christmas tree lights first appeared as a public curiosity in the late 1890s. They became available for home purchase in the early 1910s, although they remained quite pricey. In today’s dollars, the lights in this ad range from approx. $50-$150 for 8 to 16 lights. (source: The Sears Catalog, Fall 1915.) (via yeoldenews)
