The honeycomb graduation gown makes a complete circle and can be fastened with the metal clips. It opens across the front and one-half of the back (photo #11) because it was folded inward (the wrong way) when put in a storage box.
Measures 13" high x 4 1/2" wide.
Made by "The Beistle Co. - Made in U.S.A.".
Dates back to the 1960's.
The bottom of the honeycomb has a faded edge where it was folded.
Thicker paper top section has three creases (photo #10), some wear along the cap edge and a repair at the shoulder area (photos #7 and #9)
