Many Of The Same Thing In One Place

I was thumbing through my postcard album today and started to notice a pattern. I don't know whether I just unconsciously picked these up over time, but there was definitely an ongoing theme in early cards showing prosperity and plenty. This was found most often in Western postcards featuring ranching and agriculture. I give you...

Many cows


Many flour bags


Many salmon


Many grapes


Many logs in a river


Many logs in a pile


Many ostriches


Many pigeons


Many sheep

Now if you would just have "many money" you'd be all set! Nice collection though,

Peter

I'll keep an eye out, Peter!

And here are a couple more...

Many cannonballs


Many icebergs

I like this a lot and thank you.

Here's a flock of turkeys to add to the group of groups.

Turkeys! Thanks Phil. Any more manys?

I found a few others...

Many haystacks


Many sturgeon


Many oranges


And many more salmon

Great Cards!

Here are two more "many things" cards, Hops & prunes. Actually, it's plums, before they are dried into prunes.

Too many prunes can lead to the hops, I hear.

I found one more: Many cowboys riding horses!

I dont know if this counts, but there surely is plenty of laundry in this postcard.

How about many Japanese pop idols?

Many fish, drying...

A conservationist would not be happy with many of these...

Yes, I know -- especially the sturgeon. Fish that big are now illegal to catch; the maximum size is now 54". And all those icebergs are most certainly melted, along with much of Muir Glacier.
