In the 1930s, all any American boy wanted to be was a sailor. During the 1940s, he only wanted to be a pilot. By the 1950s, though, he desperately wanted to be a cowboy. TV programs such as “The Lone Ranger”, “The Gene Autry Show”, and “The Roy Rogers Show” ignited the “cowboy craze” of the post-war “baby boom” generation. The merchandise promoting those shows let any young buckaroo feel like Roy Rogers, all he needed was the vest, hat, and handkerchief. This Vintage 1950s Roy Rogers “Roundup Cowboy Outfit” Vest, Hat, & Handkerchief Set In Original Picture Box is in Very Good condition, with moderate tearing to the sweatband of the hat, moderate scattered tearing to the corners and edges of the box, and with some fragility and overall age wear evident. Most interestingly, the set is complete with the original Brown Suede Cowboy Vest with “Roy Rogers and TRIGGER” printed in red “rope lettering” at each side of the chest and raised metal holstered pistol decorated open top red lower front pockets, the original Black Felt Cowboy Hat with “ROY ROGERS TRIGGER”, spur, and pistol decorated satin hatband, the original “Roy Rogers“ rayon handkerchief with an image of Roy on Trigger and “brand” decorations throughout, and the original “ROUNDUP COWBOY OUTFIT” picture box. A fine example of a rare, original Vintage 1950s Roy Rogers “Roundup Cowboy Outfit” Vest, Hat, & Handkerchief Set In Original Picture Box, and a great relic of a bygone era, the “mom and apple pie” 1950s.
