First up, a reminder that there was once a time when Christmas lights were manufactured in many different countries. These "jewel lights" were made in Italy, circa mid 1960's--and really come into their own when lit. They're followed by an outstanding collection of very early, vintage Halloween noisemakers. Really neat graphics.
Again, click on the photos and enjoy.

Love the Halloween noise-makers. Also, it's interesting that the GE promo photo doesn't show the electric cord from the tree plugging into a socket in the ceiling fixture, which was how almost every real-world family did it in those days.
