This Thanksgiving greeting card with an Art Deco-y design from the 1920s is also an advertisement for the Carry Ice Cream Company, which manufactured Carry's Frozen Pudding Ice Cream and other treats in Washington, D.C. A Happy Thanksgiving Thanksgiving is such a happy time. Guests arrive—the joyful greetings—jest and laughter—the Thanksgiving dinner. When all are lingering over the bountiful repast, surprise them with Carry's Frozen Pudding Ice Cream. It's so delicious and adds the delightful finishing touch every hostess desires. Purest cream, nuts, fruits, and flavors are mingled to produce a characteristic Carry confection. Just the thing for luncheons, late suppers, and other social affairs. At all Carry dealers—or phone Lincoln 5900. Please place your orders early for prompt service.
