Lawrence Magazine offers last-minute costume

Need a costume for Halloween, but you’re not exactly the type to go all-out? Lawrence Magazine may have just the solution for you.

The magazine commissioned Lawrence artist Jason Barr to create a disguise steeped in Kansas history — John Brown’s beard. The magazine also features a John Brown Cut Out Doll Disguise Kit.

Download the abolitionist’s facial hair, print it and cut it out. You’re set as one of the state’s controversial historical figures.
