DescriptionThis is a costume of a lobster on a table. It is comprised of a white canvas, set horizontally with gray edging and a blue strip. A lemon slice, parsley, and 2 crackers rest on the "table" while the body of clear red plastic, comes up through the middle. The red plastic is painted to resemble lobster, who has clear plastic claws. A black leotard is underneath the plastic body and canvas plate.
