A turkey standing on a split-rail fence is the central figure of this Thanksgiving postcard, with the greeting "Thanksgiving Joys to All" set across the card. Holiday postcards like this were produced in large numbers in the early twentieth century, when the mail was a common way to send seasonal wishes. Artists often drew turkeys as cheerful, almost comical characters, and the fence and farm setting reflected the rural roots that many Americans still associated with the harvest holiday. Such cards were typically cheap, colorful, and sent quickly between family and friends, which is why so many survive today.
