This hanger was meant for store displays of Ben Cooper Halloween costumes. I am estimating it to be from the 50s, possibly earlier, as the address of the town shows a postal zone number. The hanger was meant to display size medium (8-10) or large (12-14) costumes. The hanger measures 31" from the top of the hanger to the bottom. From the top of the head to the bottom, the measurement is 26.75". Across the shoulders the measurement is 17.25".
The hanger can swivel and it is riveted to the heavy cardboard. Over all, the hanger is in good shape. The face does not have any serious stains. There are a few in the hair area. There are some light impressions at the mouth and neck. The body part of the hanger has some age stains. There is a repaired tear at the right shoulder and a mild crease on the right side. popular See these in the photos. The Ben Cooper child costume hangers are rare. This little gal is a great way to display a vintage or antique child's costume, especially a Ben Cooper one!
