A woman carving a turkey at the center of this illustrated verse card sets it apart from the board's many images of the Pilgrims and Plymouth. The scene reflects how Thanksgiving had shifted by the late 1800s and early 1900s, when the holiday was increasingly pictured as a family meal at home rather than a historical event. Greeting cards of this kind were popular then, pairing sentimental verses with decorative art, and they show how the American table and the holiday's imagery were being shaped together.
