Collegeville Cape

Dracula would be hard pressed to sneak up on anyone in this vinyl cape by Collegeville. This vinyl cape swishes like corduroy pants.

On the contrary. Dracula appears to have been startled by someone sneaking up on him.


Apparently, Dracula doesn't own an iron.

"Cape 41".  I find it hard to believe there were 40 cape models prior to this one.

Despite "Startled Dracula", I love the art on the package.

 

He kind of reminds me of the "Hyde and Hare" Bugs Bunny cartoon short.

  1. The guy modeling the cape kind of reminds me of Rock Hudson from McMillan and wife.

    1. He does! In the non-mustache years at least.

  2. i think the guy looks less startled than happy, like he just spied a friend across the room on the way to the dance floor. and the guy in the upper right corner is *definitely* a shoutout to "Hyde and Hair"!

  4. Fun. If I remember correctly, these did not last long.

    1. I don't think anything made by Collegeville or Ben Cooper were made to last. The fact that some costumes still do is fortuitous.
