Halloween Revisited -- Halloween Hang Up

I never did find a definitive date on this.  I ended up selling it on eBay years ago.

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.

  1. Another in good shape for its age. And quite eye-catching.

  2. Looks old to me. But I would have said 70s, maybe early 80s.

  4. Now that i see the country of make, the art style makes more sense to me. It looks proto-Anime to me.
