I remember a Los Angeles Dodgers 2020 Team Collage Xmas Sweater memoir — Beasts, Men, and Gods — by Ferdinand Ossendowski, a White Pole who fled the Bolshevik revolution through Siberia.

In the fifties various lights were a big deal, with bubble lights, that had bubbles in the candle portion that moved when plugged in.
