COLLEGEVILLE Costumes, HALLOWEEN GYPSY, Fortune Teller, Vest, Shirt, Skirt
Authentic 1950s GYPSY Halloween Costume in original Collegeville Box? This scarce and wonderful Halloween costume is a one-of-a-kind find! This is a full set which includes: the vest, shirt, skirt, earrings, and tambourines. Outside of box is marked Medium 8 to 10. ” Vest measures 15″ long x 15 wide. Shirt long x sleeves are 17″ long, Body of shirt 16″ long x 12 wide. Skirt measures 18″ long x 36″ wide. The waist measures approximately 22 round. All measurements are approximate. ? Skirt shows a a few light stains probably from that Halloween night long ago… But does not detract. All clothing pieces are in VG condition with no rips, tears, or dry-rotting. (See photos)? The earrings were stuffed in the shirt pocket, so I assume Mom supplied these to her “little Gypsy” to complete her outfit. Gypsies & Flamenco dancers grace the front of each tambourine. They are made from tin, have a lithographic design, and are made by the U. Metal Toy Mfg Company. Both tambourines have rust and paint fading/chipping. Tambourines were stored separately in a shed. ? Original box is in poor condition. It was flattened in storage, but is gently taped together on the inside to hold shape. 200, Child, Gypsy Girl, Size Medium 8 to 10. Great to prove provenance of item. Great display piece for that Halloween collector, costume designer, or aficionado or mid century fabrics and clothing designs.
