Some eateries
subscribe to the decoy theory, presenting images of gluttonous
diners engaged in a feeding frenzy.

In
other cards, a neutron bomb has apparently hit the external world;
staff wait, poised for a dinner crowd that never arrives.

“or “Fair.” No check box for “Murder.”

When
traveling the Interstate, it makes for an exceptionally
restful trip if you let the tots sample the fruit of the
lollipop tree. And don’t bother supervising them in the

The pasty
purveyors of this 1908 card chose for a backdrop what would appear
to be a burning oil slick.
