Few symbols say "Fourth of July" as plainly as an eagle grasping a shield, and this card puts that pairing front and center under the phrase "Let the Eagle Scream." The eagle has been the national emblem since the Great Seal was adopted in 1782, and its spread-winged pose with a striped shield recalls the Continental cause and the union of the states. Holiday cards like this one were widely printed in the late 1800s and early 1900s, when color lithography made inexpensive patriotic greetings common for family and friends on Independence Day. The card shows how ordinary households expressed national pride through the everyday mail.
