A turkey shares the front of this Thanksgiving greeting card with a flag, pairing the holiday's harvest theme with national pride. Postcards like this were produced in large numbers in the early twentieth century, when color printing became cheap enough for mass-market holiday mail. Senders often chose designs that combined seasonal imagery with patriotic symbols, reflecting how Thanksgiving was then becoming a firmly national observance. The flag on a card like this is worth noticing, since it signals that the greeting was meant as much as an expression of civic feeling as of family warmth.
