YEARS: 1960-1974


Box for the companyโ€™s line of monster/creature costumes, and one of only three boxes that had the โ€œSpook Townโ€ logo on it.

It seems it was used at the beginning of the 1960s, then reappeared in the early 70s.

This design is similar to the Spook Town Black box (link) which was in use at the same time but might precede this box.

This may have been the first box to say โ€œventilated maskโ€.

Ben Cooper Spook Town Yellow Variant Box
print variant

Some (early?) printings didn’t say โ€œventilated maskโ€, and others were missing โ€œflame retardant” as well. Oddly, some had โ€œBen Cooper” printed twice on the front.

Spook Town Yellow Box Side Logo

The side panels had the “Spook Town” logo with the words inversely styled.

The box can be seen in this 1975 news footage.
