EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up and feast your eyes on this delightful Victorian-era Christmas label featuring a comically humanized turkey! Dressed in fashionable attire, this jolly bird dons a top hat adorned with a monogrammed "T" and a monocle, while carrying a walking stick and a bottle of alcohol under his arm. The turkey's companion, a cigar-smoking, bottle-clutching goose, looks on approvingly. The turkey, with a mischievous grin and a bubble speech balloon above his head, appears to be addressing the viewer, "Cheers to a merry and tipsy Xmas, my dear friend!" The label's playful humor and intricate detailing showcase the whimsical spirit of the late 1800s. This charming piece of holiday artistry, circa 1880s, invites us to imagine a time when food and drink brought people together to celebrate the joyous season. The label's design, with its comic elements and attention to detail, adds a touch of amusement to the festive table. As we admire the label's delightful illustrations, we can't help but be transported back to a time when the simple pleasures of life, like good food, good company, and a little merriment, were the true essence of the holiday season.
