Behold the Tower of Vegetables Real Photo Postcard collection Jim Linderman


CLICK TO ENLARGE TOWER OF VEGETABLES


Rubbing a New York State bounty in the rest of the world's face, a well-stacked and stocked "Vegetable Tower" reins over the State Fair of 1918. It was harvest time, and you know all those zucchini ripen at the same time. The upstate farmers must have run out of friends to pass them off to. Click to enlarge and you'll see corn, pumpkins and who knows what else. I do not believe the vertical cornucopia caught on...I find no mention of one at the WORLD'S fair twenty years later down in the city.

I have no idea how one glues a pumpkin to a tower.
