less a history, more of a photo essay.
if you want a coffee table book of people wearing bedraggled, ugly, poorly made "vintage" halloween costumes, this books for you. if youre looking for a history of halloween costumes and masquerade in america, look elsewhere. in the authors mind, the photos were more important than the costumes themselves.

I actually borrowed this book from the library as part of research on a project. I loved it so much i went on Amazon before i had to return it. Its the perfect reference book for vintage costumes. The photography is beautiful and some of the costumes are just inspiring.

Of Halloweens long ago....,

This book is a great look back at some vintage Halloween costumes. They range from late 1800s to early 1980s with more focus being on the pre-1960s eras. The reason is that the photographer collects vintage Halloween costumes from around the country. Creating both a collection and a history of Halloween in America.
The photography is very well done and the photographer even talks about the methods used which is a very interesting way to make the photos unique and almost come alive. A must see for Halloween devotees interested in costume styles from yesteryear.
