(REAL PHOTO POSTCARDS) A humorous collection of 30 photographic exaggerations featuring seamlessly montaged elements of oversized animals and mammoth produce. With an array of bizarre subjects, from hunting gigantic corn-stealing crickets to riding atop a human-bearing pheasant; to numerous scenes of monumental crops, fruits, and vegetables towered onto various vehicles and hose-drawn carts. Silver prints on postcard paper, the images measuring approximately 3 1/2x5 1/2 inches (8.9x14 cm.), and the reverse, many with the photographer's credit and tongue-in-cheek captions in the negative, and most with handwritten captions, in pencil and in ink, on verso; many postally used. Circa 1910-50s
