Tall-tale postcards were part of the larger than life story-telling tradition of early America. Amazing Fruits and Vegetables contains 30 different postcards, including, giant strawberries, colossal cantaloupes, titanic tomatoes and some very big celery. Viewers now, as then, will enjoy the skill of the photographic trickery and delight in the concept of such huge fruits and vegetables. Darling & Co. has published ten previous postcard books, six featuring vintage postcards, among them are Easter Postcard Book, Valentine Postcard Book and Fourth of July Postcard Book.
