Item Description
These nice quality two-piece fabric costumes by Wornova Manufacturing Co. of New York. Each is accented by 3" dia. felt patch on chest, one featuring "Mickey Mouse," the other w/"Minnie Mouse." Mickey was also detailed w/pair of felt buttons (one now missing and easily replaced) and has the original rubber tail. These were originally obtained from Hooper & Howe, a costume supply house from Haverhill, MA that was in business from 1902 to 1998 and was a large supplier of costumes for stage, shows and parades. However, these two particular costumes were apparently samples as they do not exhibit any wear from use. Each costume is currently pinned to 32x44" foamcore board. Buyer can choose to leave them on boards for shipping (which will result in a higher shipping cost) or remove them for shipping. Each is accompanied by a photo print of the 1933 Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade showing a Mickey Mouse balloon and float, both manned by a number of people dressed in costumes like these. This photo appears at left center of Minnie, while the photo w/Mickey has come loose from the backing (but is included). As the photo shows, these costumes were originally sold w/matching masks and oversized hand mitts, none of which are present but also in no way affects their display as is. Both of the felt patches show lt. aging to the white bkgs. but silk-screened designs remain strong. Mickey's pants have some scattered areas of slight color fade but both outfits overall remain totally bright and clean. Aside from the pants fade, costumes are VF to Exc. An exceptional pair.
