The picture shows what a small Christmas tree would look like from the time frame of 1905 to the 1930's. All of the ornaments are mouth blown and are paper thin. The small cast iron tree stand is surrounded by a tree fence. All of the toys under the tree, such as the Schoenhut circus clown, and jack in the box date to the same time period. I wish all of my fellow collectors a Happy Holiday!
