Lead with the card's own wording: its title, "Let the Eagle Scream," is a line of the national mood, and the 4th of July sits at its center. Patriotic greeting cards like this one became popular in the United States in the late 1800s and early 1900s, when printers used chromolithography to turn out bright, inexpensive designs for holidays such as Independence Day. Cards of this kind typically paired a national emblem, most often the eagle, with patriotic verse, and they were mailed or handed out during festivities and parades. Look closely at the color and the eagle's pose, which show how the era's illustrators meant to stir pride.
