Vintage Patriotic Drum Greeting Card - Three Cheers Red White Blue

Why does this drum have two drumsticks crossed at the top like a tiny percussion crucifix? Perhaps because the red snare drum adorned with white chevron detailing has just emerged victorious from battle, with its red, white, and blue flag ribbon dramatically billowing off it accordingly. The whole composition sits against a border of faint sheet music, because apparently the best way to express 'I love America' is by floating a percussion instrument in front of some unreadable sheet music nobody asked for. The text 'Three cheers for the Red, White and Blue!' is rendered in that precious multi-colored font that screams 'we tried very hard,' and somehow the drum manages to look both heroic and deeply self-important about it.
