Turkey-and-children Thanksgiving postcards like this one belong to a boom in holiday greeting cards that swept the United States in the early 1900s, when printers used color lithography to mass-produce cheerful scenes for the season. Cards of this type typically pair a plump, often anthropomorphized bird with children in autumn clothing, a sentiment in bold lettering, and a border of harvest motifs such as corn, gourds, or fallen leaves. Postcards were especially popular then because the postal system made them cheap to send, so a card like this one was a quick way to share holiday wishes with family and friends.
