Bizarre Halloween Costumes for Global Culture Junkies From the 1920 Sears Catalog
Bizarre Halloween Costumes for Global Culture Junkies From the 1920 Sears Catalog It has classic Negro masks like Sporty Mose (sorry, collar and tie not included), Old Uncle Joe, and Aunt Dinah (a Negress outfit not complete without this mask!). Oh, and if you really want to go hog wild you can get one of the full body suits — there’s the Ridiculous Yellow Kid, the Japanese Lady, and the Negro Minstrel Suit (suitable for hometown shows, no less). https://www.vintag.es/2020/10/bizarr...umes-1920.html |

So I guess my mum's werewolves costumes were not scary enough. My birthday is near Halloween or as I prefer Samhain.
Every year I wanted to be a werewolf. She had blood (red paint) splatter shirts and a really creepy pair of gloves. Claws and everything. She was an artist. Now retired. Just turned 83. My older sister went as a hippy. That was a thing back then, but even then I went with the classics.

Pc police release updated annual list of banned halloween activities and costumes
In its ongoing Holy War against normal American life, terrorist organization ADL (Anti-Defamation League)*declared a fatwa against 2021 Halloween blasphemers, and it’s a doozy.
Often, the ADL grimly warns, Halloween “is the opposite of fun” because of the pain it brings to the marginalized communities that the ADL appointed itself the representative of. For its self-appointed status as the supreme moral authority on the Earth, the organization receives*generous multi-million dollar grants*to “monitor extremism across the ideological spectrum,” identify and target infidels on behalf of governing authorities, and, of course, to*funnel cash to politicians. Frankly, it’s a miracle these religious authorities haven’t yet banned Halloween festivities altogether on the grounds that they are just too transphobic or anti-Semitic or whatever. Activities that the ADL wants you, the filthy infidel, to understand that you’re not allowed to engage in on Halloween: “cultural appropriation”“cultural stereotypes”“costumes that marginalize those who don’t conform to traditional gender norms” More here... https://www.blacklistednews.com/arti...ities-and.html |

They didn't believe in "political correctness" in those days, did they?
