Paper Art - Kitty Cat Party Hats - package of 8 (1960s)

This charming set of 1960s paper “Kitty Cat” party hats remains sealed in its original packaging—an uncommon survival from an era when most were immediately used and discarded after birthday parties and children’s gatherings. Each hat features a wide-eyed white kitten with bright green eyes, pink-tipped ears, and a big bow tie, perfectly capturing the playful, cheerful illustration style of mid-century children’s graphics.

Sold under the label Party Hats – Paper Art for You, these sets were inexpensive dime-store and variety shop staples.
