Thursday Postcard Hunt - Illustrations: Food or Plants
Food or Plants is this week's Illustrated theme for Thursday Postcards.
A reproduction of a fruit crate label. Great garage sale find (a set of five), as I collect crate labels!
A postcard my son brought me from Georgia, USA.
Savannah pecan pie recipes are usually different from this one. This is pretty much just a common southern pecan pie recipe. No problem with that, I love it, in small doses, pecan pie is super sweet!

Tony Packo's Cafe, Toledo, Ohio
Famous for the Tony Packo Hot Dog since 1932. It's also the world capital of autographed hotdog buns. Really! Burt Reynolds started the tradition of celebrity bun signing. The buns are now made of foam. There is also an exhibit of MASH, the television show, memorabilia. Tony Packo's was mentioned six times in the series. And what a great series that was! Hilariously funny, and heartbreakingly sad both. The postcard looks a little bit like a photo, but it's a painting.

That's it for August. September brings Learning as the theme. The first week, next week, will be Legends/Children's Stories.
...I LOVED Tony Packo's when we lived in Toledo!
ReplyDeleteNice! I'd never heard of it, so it's nice to hear from someone who not only has, but liked it!
DeleteThe fruit crate label reproduction is awesome!
ReplyDeleteIt is, if a bit strange with the bears and bald eagle fighting over the pineapple can! And pineapple isn't even one of "The Fruits of California." Old packing labels are fun!
Deletepacking labels are fun to collect (rather like album covers - there's always a story, though it may be obscure). that's a nice looking recipe card
ReplyDeleteI like the recipe one, it looks like it's written in chalk on a blackboard. A bit different that way. I don't find many labels, which is good, since they are usually fruit (although I have two can labels from fish) and therefore need to be hung in the kitchen!
DeleteFruit crate labels are a popular collectible, now. My father had a bit of a collection back in the '80s. No idea what happened to it.
