Another Determined Production: Crabby Costume



Here's a fun Halloween item: you can be the queen of crabbiness herself, Lucy Van Pelt, with this Peanuts Costume, created by the Peanuts licensee supreme, Determined Products. Released in the 1970s, this perfect-for-Great-Pumpkin watching (or scorning) outfit originally cost $3.18 according to the price tag from Rinks department store (which was apparently in Ohio) on the suitably pumpkin-orange box. (Also available: Charlie Brown and Snoopy costumes....but no Linus. Linus is of course waiting in the sincere pumpkin patch, waiting for the Great Pumpkin.)

  1. Wouldn't it be considered "breaking character" if one was to purchase a Linus costume for trick-or-treating instead of donning it for an all-nighter in a pumpkin patch?

  2. I personally think it would. Good thinking, James!
