A girl in a bonnet stands among a flock of turkeys on this Thanksgiving greeting postcard, a sentimental picture that was typical of the holiday cards mailed in the early 1900s. Postcards like this one were a popular way to send seasonal wishes, and the design leaned on rural and domestic imagery: harvest bounty, farm animals, and children in old-fashioned dress. Its appearance on a board marking the Plymouth 300th anniversary is a reminder that the Thanksgiving story was often retold through such cheerful, nostalgic illustrations, which helped shape how the holiday was imagined by the public.
