Creature from the Black Lagoon (51/54) - Rubie's Universal Monsters Creature from the Black Lagoon Pet Costume (2022)

 

Though I don't own a dog, I did briefly own this Creature from the Black Lagoon pet costume.

I bought it specifically for my pal Muggsy Parker Schow, who I knew would never forgive me for the indignity — so I was quite pleased when his Mom sent me this photo of Muggsy in the Creature costume. I personally think he rocks the outfit.

We're in the final month of I Am 54, but hang in there as we wind down our celebration of the 70th anniversaries of I Am Legend, Godzilla, and The Creature from the Black Lagoon. Check back next week for another item from my Creature collection as we countdown to the final entries in this series!
