Pictured are some vintage Halloween decorations. The skull and pumpkins are embossed and were made in Germany sometime between the 1920's and 1930's. The black cat was made in the USA and dates to the 1940's-1950's. The last pumpkin has thin red paper inserts so if you were to have a light behind it the eyes and mouth will be highlighted. Often, people would throw these away after using them. The skull has the original price of 15 cents written with pencil on the reverse.
