Vintage Thanksgiving Greeting Card with Turkey & Corn Field

The turkey appears to be thinking: 'I own this place,' as it struts through the golden harvest field in the lower left foreground with a full-fanned tail display that screams confidence — which, given the holiday, is tragically ironic. The scene is aggressively bucolic: corn shocks loom in the background like golden obelisks of doom, at least three pumpkins are scattered around with the casual confidence of props in a community theater production, and the word 'Thanksgiving' is scrawled across the center in festive lettering that the turkey is definitely not reading. The bird's beak is open, its fan tail is fully displayed, and it is staring off to the side with the focused intensity of someone who has just heard a noise in the kitchen and suspects the worst — which, again, tragically accurate.
