A holiday postcard with a turkey at its center, this one belongs to the early twentieth century, when Thanksgiving greetings were often printed as cheerful chromolithographs. Cards like this were mailed between friends and relatives, and they helped spread the idea of a national harvest holiday centered on family and a shared meal. Look at the bright, saturated colors and the decorative border, which reflect the commercial printing methods of the era. The bird, usually shown proud and plump, became a common symbol of the holiday in these cards.
