Vintage Halloween Costumes

The term vintage was originally used to describe the year when a wine or oil was bottled. It was then passed onto general used and it first used to describe vintage cars. These cars were those that are at least 50 years old. Eventually, dealers of second hand clothing used the term to describe second hand clothes that are 25 years or older.
