Vintage Thanksgiving Proclamation Card, Wild Turkeys & Harvest Feast

A tense, domestic-dispute energy radiates from two turkeys—one magnificently puffed-up with a full fan tail display and iridescent dark plumage, one smaller and decidedly less impressive—locked in what appears to be a heated argument over a single ear of corn and what look like two small apples, because nothing says 'bountiful harvest' like fighting over three items. A 'Thanksgiving Proclamation' document is tacked to the fence directly behind them, which is either a bold artistic choice or the most passive-aggressive execution notice in holiday card history. The big turkey's wattle is doing the absolute most—swollen, crimson, dangling with the energy of someone who just got told they're the main course—while the smaller bird leans in with matching red-faced intensity, apparently unaware that neither of them is winning this argument.
