J.F.K. and Jackie Kennedy Masks (circa 1962)





You are bidding on a set of two plastic 1960's Halloween masks depicting John F. Kennedy and his wife, Jackie.

I bought these at a Lowell, Michigan antique store approximately 20 years ago. I have decided to part with this set because I have no need for it and am not a collector.

Condition: Both masks are very fragile and cracked. The original elastic straps that held the mask on the wearer's face are missing from both masks.


I wonder if the seller realizes how great his or her photographs of these masks are, especially the odd-angled ones.

They really do become death masks in those photos.

And so much more.
