The holiday remained rooted in neighborhood participation, with children gathering in small groups for photos before heading out to trick-or-treat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"694\" data-end=\"1132\"\u003eThe image shows a boy wearing a wide-brim hat and cape with a playful drawn-on mustache, alongside another child dressed in a cowboy-style outfit, while two younger children stand beside them in everyday clothing with subtle costume touches. The handwritten “Oct. 1961” on the reverse provides a precise date, reinforcing its value as a documented family snapshot. The square 3.5 x 3.5 format is typical of amateur prints from the period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1134\" data-end=\"1423\"\u003eThe item shown in the listing is the exact item the collector will receive.
