Collegeville Costume Co. Child’s Clown Costume 2 pc, fabric, Vintage 1960’s
This vintage child’s clown costume was manufactured by the Collegeville Costume Co. It is a classic two-piece costume, constructed out of flame-retardant crinkle cut rayon or thin synthetic fabric. The costume features a graphic shirt showcasing a clown face with a diamond patterned ruff, paired with mismatched split-design pants; one side bright yellow and the other side red with large black polka dots. THIS COSTUME IS CONSIDERED TO BE UNCOMMON TO SCARCE AND WAS DESIGNED TO BE WORN ONCE OR TWICE. THIS IS AN AMAZINGLY RARE FIND OF THIS EXACT COSTUME IN THIS CONDITION. This was my childhood costume and has been lovingly stored for many years to preserve it. It has never been exposed to smoke. There is no size tag in the costume but I would have been approximately age 5 when I wore this.
