Dear Ms. Tsiavos: In your letter dated March 26, 2013, you requested a tariff classification ruling. You submitted samples and/or photographs of four styles of a “Mask and Gloves Set”, identified as item number 93235. The styles Dr. Zombie, Shroud Skull and Skeleton Zombie are plastic scary masks sewn to a textile hood covered with simulated rotting gauze, and packaged with skeleton gloves that are color-coordinated to match the accompanying mask. A sample of the fourth style, Walking Zombie, was not included with the ruling request, but based upon its photograph and a telephone conversation between this office and the inquirer, Walking Zombie consists of a plastic scary mask attached to a synthetic fright wig that pulls over the head in the same manner as the other styles.
