Two turkeys share the frame in this holiday greeting, one of the details that sets it apart from the many Thanksgiving postcards on this board that show a single bird on a platter. Cards like this were popular in the early twentieth century, when color lithography made inexpensive postcards a common way to send seasonal wishes by mail. Artists often drew birds as cheerful, almost human figures, and the printed message was usually as much the point as the picture itself. Look at how the printed greeting and the bright seasonal colors work together to make the card feel festive.
