With My Compliments
"With my compliments."
Why would someone be giving away lemons "with my compliments"?
It helps to know that handing someone a lemon in the early twentieth century when this postcard appeared was actually a way to say "scram," "beat it," or in the parlance of the day, "skidoo" or "23 skidoo."
For more information about "23 skidoo" and how it related to lemons, see Skidoo 23 Is Now 37:
