Halloween: 1973

Halloween: 1973

James didn’t have any vintage Halloween photos to submit  so he sent in a video of his cool Halloween party from ’73. James is dressed as Frankenstein but I also spotted a Collegeville The Spider costume, which I think I wore in ’75.
Thanks James!
 For more 1973 check out the Collegeville Costume Catalog from that year:

    LOLZ! I remember my younger cousin wore that same spider costume in 1980. He told me he was Spiderman. I had to break it to him, no he wasn't. Hilarious that that sub par spider costume made the rounds for so many years.
