I remember seeing Halloween masks like the above at a local Ben Franklin dime store around Halloweentime when I was a kid, but I thought why they's sell those kind of masks without the vinyl smock costume, as it seemed pointless, but now I realize they were to make your own, or whatnot.
No, I remember it they were on displays like in the picture. Alothugh, I gotta say, it looks like they were making Radioactive Man (Bart Simpson's favorite superhero from THe Simpsons) as a mask even before The Simpsons was made.
Spot on with the Ben Franklin comment. Growing up in northern NJ, the Ben Franklin stores were the only ones I remember that had these point of purchase mask only displays. Bought a Ben Cooper Spock one year to wear with my Donmoor Trek shirt.

I don't think I ever saw masks displayed like this, either. Would have been quite cool though!
That is a genuine Solar: Man of the Atom mask! (as seen in Gold Key comics!)
Alphacentaurian is right, amazing that was made, really cool looking too!
