My father LOVES light bulbs. He marvels at all the new shapes and energy-saving improvements introduced each year - and can't wait to try them.

Whether you know somebody like him, somebody environmentally conscious, or somebody just interested in saving some green (dollars that is), these light bulbs will please. Try a few for Christmas, holiday, hostess and even birthday giving. All bulbs are manufactured by TCP Inc., the leader in energy-efficient lighting.
