Halloween Hang Up

I found this Halloween door hanger in a box lot I bought at an estate sale about a month ago.  


Based on the artwork, I first assumed it was new.



But then I saw the country of manufacture stamped on it.


So that would most likely date this to the 1950's or '60's.  It's a bit of a mystery, because I wasn't aware of any Halloween-related exports coming from Japan.
