Vintage Green Lantern Cosplay

(Via)
Even in the 40's cosplayer's were really popular. Fred Lipps Jr. masquerades as the Green Lantern on Mardi Gras March 5, 1946.

Fred Lipps Jr., 13, donned the costume and was photographed at his aunt's house on Polymnia Street, near the corner of Dryades, in Central City.
Home sick from school a few days earlier, Fred and his mother dyed some long johns, and a sheet for the cape, an appropriate shade of green and painted the yellow circle, with the iconic lantern, on a shirt.

Alan Scott always was the best Green Lantern.
