Masquerade Masks and Costumes Across Society
A discussion of masquerade customs shows masks sourced mainly from France and Germany with prices from a cent to hundreds of dollars. Full head masks use molds. half masks need less labor. Subjects range from historical figures to animals, with theatrical and satirical inclinations. Costumes vary by taste and fashion, often rented or made to order, and elaborate outfits can reach high prices. Also included are humorous anecdotes about costume buyers and social notes from Austin and Washington.
