Turkeys Breaking the Wishbone on Thanksgiving Day

Turkeys Breaking the Wishbone on Thanksgiving Day
A 1908 Tuck postcard with an apparently cannibalistic Thanksgiving scene of two turkeys pulling on a wishbone.

Smiley Derleth has particularly liked this photo

We Brits tend to have our turkeys on Christmas Day - although that would not be my first choice. So this photo that I took at a city farm in inner London, has a similar tasteless humour, but with a reference to that festival.
