A child stands beside a wooden crate stenciled "Fire Works," the kind of shipping box fireworks arrived in, which gives this Fourth of July card an unusually practical focus. Holiday postcards of the early twentieth century often leaned on patriotic symbols such as flags, eagles and star-spangled borders, so a card that centers on a packing crate stands apart from the usual flag-waving scenes. Such cards were mailed in large numbers around Independence Day, and small details like the crate reflect how fireworks were bought, shipped and set off in local communities at the time.
