Halloween Clown Costume Early 20th Century









From the seller:

DATING TO THE 1920’S

FASHIONED OF YELLOW AND NAVY BLUE COTTON

CLOSES IN ITS FRONT

RUFFLES ON THE BOTTOM OF THE CUFFS AND A FLAT RUFFLE AROUND THE NECKLINE

THERE IS SOME BLEEDING OF THE BLUE ON THE YELLOW, SLIGHTLY SOILED BUT OTHERWISE EXCELLENT





MEASUREMENTS IN INCHES:
CHEST: 56

LENGTH: 55





From Me:

I'm not sure this is 1920's specifically. It could be Edwardian. This style - with the huge collar- was pretty popular for a Halloween costume for a long while. Even today, this would be a perfectly normal clown costume for Halloween.
