A couple of pieces for you on the 4th of July, 2020. I'm staying in. If you go out, be safe.
This card is circa 1940.

Watermelon for Everyone!
These are strange times we're living in. Thought this would be appropriate.
I have a small collection of these cards, known as "Tall-Tales". They feature mostly exaggerated fruits, vegetables, and animals. This one dates from around 1910. There is a second version with the same card number 530 but with a younger man with a mustache.
