If you thought Cosplay was a relatively new phenomenon, we’re delighted to inform you that this is not the case. If you’re feeling skeptical, here’s some fantastic proof. Ron Miller, io9 writer and long-term convention attendee, assembled an awesome collection of photos of cosplayers from the 1970s kitted out in all their costumed glory.
Please be forewarned, should you decide to visit io9 to see the rest of the photos, there are some costumes over there that qualify as NSFW. But, as Jill Harness from Neatorama said: “That being said, if you can handle seeing a few naked breasts, this fantastic collection of crazy cosplay costumes from the swinging seventies are all worth a long look.”
