"I shot the turkey but I did not shoot the deputy!" this guy is handing a murdered bird over to a couple in order to help the celebrate the american Thanksgiving holiday. I suppose this is back in the day when you would take a fresh one home and then pluck it yourself.
Is it just me or are many old illustrations really quite creepy? Why is Santa dancing with this ferocious looking bear? Why are the children lining up behind them without being scared? I don't why, this whole picture just creeps me out. Originally used to illustrate a December 1904 (read that as: totally public domain) advertisement in the The San Francisco Call newspaper. The original ad was for a company called Pragers. They sold things like: scarf pins for men, women and children (50 cents), vests ($3.85), kindergarten goods for girls (50 cents), porcelain clocks ($2.50) and all other manner of things. (They should have posted the ad with a warning like this: prices subject to change due to temporal readjustment when advertisement is read over 100 years later.)

I was browsing through an old 1909 (thus public domain) issue of the Pullman Herald newspaper and came across this delightful illustration for a Clothcraft Clothes ad. The placement and behavior of the characters is most interesting. Here for the future to enjoy!
A man with a giant head,
never listened to what was said,
he always walked around like a bloody fool,
looking for some kind of useful tool.
.... uhm yeah. so a big headed man. yup.
