Politically Incorrect Halloween Costumes Photograph Album - 1980s-1990s
(There are more images after the description.)
(The images look a little fuzzy since I took the photos through the page protectors; the actual photographs in the album are in nice shape.)
Politically Incorrect Halloween Photograph Album. Unknown compiler.  Pennsylvania: 1980s-1990s.
Large self-mount album containing nearly 300 photographs of adults (and a few children) in Halloween costumes. The photographs can be easily removed from the album pages. Many of the photographs portray well-known characters and people of the 1980s and a few have 1991 date-stamps. Most appear to have been taken at annual parties held in in family’s rec room named “Ernie’s Place,” and there is a Penn State sign visible in one. Several photos of children were taken outside and at an elementary school costume parade. The album and photographs are in nice shape.
Costumes run the gamut from tame to politically incorrect to scary and include
baseball players,
f
ootball players,
soldiers,
doctors and nurses,
patients,
farmers,
cows, cats,
rabbits and bunnies,
Raggedy Ann and Andy,
Peter Pan,
Miss Piggy,
Groucho and Harpo Marx,
Ronald Reagan,
a saxophone player (Bill Clinton?),
crayons,
motorcycle gang members,
traditional and scary clowns,
gorillas,
hobos,
convicts,
t
raditional gangsters,
the John 3:16 Rainbow Man,
Jesus,
an Arab,
nuns,
blackface pimps,
hookers,
victims,
cross-dressers,
male and female flashers,
wizards and witches,
aliens, mummies,
skeletons,
the Phantom of the Opera,
Dracula,
Frankenstein,
Satan and other devilish creatures,
Nightmare on Elm Street’s Freddy Krueger,
Halloween’s Michael Myers,
serial killers, and many more.
A fascinating visual record of late-20th century Halloween celebrations before the days of
political
correctness and the widespread fear of hurt feelings. No doubt that on many a university campus, some of these costumes would warrant suspensions, expulsions, and fraternity/sorority closures.

Payment
PayPal is preferred for both US and international payments.
Other methods of payment may be possible.
Shipping
Domestic Shipping.
Most orders are shipped to locations in the US at no additional cost. If not, shipping costs are set at a flat rate on an item-by-item basis.
Media mail shipping--when available and appropriate--is inexpensive but may take between two and four weeks, especially if delivery is to the west coast. If a quick delivery is important to you, please request USPS Priority Mail or some other expedited delivery service before paying.
International Shipping. International shipping is usually done through the eBay Global Shipping Program.  I know that this can be expensive, but I've switched to this method because I've had too many claims of non-receipt by international buyers.  If you contact me in advance of purchase it may be possible for me to ship directly to you.
If I ship directly, I will only ship overseas using a trackable method; this can be expensive, and it is non-negotiable.  Also, I will only enter true information on customs forms; if you  have a problem paying your nation's customs fees, that is beteen you and your government, I have nothing to do with it.
If you pay by PayPal, I will only ship to the shipping address specified by PayPal.
All shipments are covered by my business insurance at my expense, however if you would like to purchase additional USPS insurance at your expense, let me know, and I'll adjust your invoice accordingly.
