1926

Judging from the businesses hawking Halloween wares, it was a well enjoyed holiday in the 1920's.  The foods of choice were donuts, apple cider, apples and pumpkin pie.  Candy was fashionable too.  Parties, rather than trick or treating, were popular.  Here are some fun ads around the Colorado Springs area which will help plan your perfect soiree'.  I love the graphics on these.

When things sag or slow up at my party, I usually suggest more alcohol.  Alas, prohibition kept that option at bay.

Viands, now that's a word you don't hear much.  It is defined as articles or dishes of food of a delicate or choice nature.  I am gonna use that on this years Halloween invite.

The bogie book was the "go to" Halloween party guide.  Here it is from 1921, the year of the ad above.

Hmmm - all about Christmas with that fine Halloween graphic.  Even back in the 1920's, Christmas invaded Halloween!

Pumpkin pie seemed to be associated with Halloween in the 1920's than it is today.
