VTT - Apples and Thanksgiving



Today's Thanksgiving postcard showing a boy eating an apple was published by the Stecher Lithograph Company and is numbered 252 F. It was mailed in 1912.

Below are two apple wall pocket planters. The one on the left is marked PY and has an N in a circle. The one on the right is Royal Copley. Both have holes on the back for hanging. The one on the right has a flat bottom and can also stand.



I'm participating in Vintage Thingie Thursday

  6. The turkey may be eying the little boy's apple, but the boy is eying the turkey's neck. Watch out turkey!
