A Picture of Our Harvest Home, 1909


A fruits and vegetables photo for the Vintage Photos Theme Park.
This is a real photo postcard postmarked on the other side at: "Glenwood, Pa., Dec. 2, 1909."
Addressed to: "Miss Sara Leggett, S.W. Cor. Peach & Media, West Philad."
Message: "Dec. 2/09. Glad [that] kind Providence is allowing you to pass another Mile Stone on Life's Journey. M.M.L. Psalms 91.16. A picture of our Harvest Home."
Bible verse cited in message (Psalms 91:16): "With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation."
Although the message on the back of this card is a birthday greeting, the front of it is an interesting "picture of our Harvest Home" that shows fruits and vegetables arranged around the altar at the front of a church (mouse over the image above for a close-up view).
"Harvest Home" was--and continues to be--a religious celebration that's typically held at Lutheran, Reformed, and other churches in Pennsylvania and elsewhere during the late summer or early fall. As seen here, one of the notable aspects of the observance is a display of tomatoes, potatoes, pumpkins, cornstalks, flowers, and other fruits, vegetables, and grains.
For additional examples, see my Harvest Home album.
