why 'main' potatoes and not 'maine potatoes'???
ho2cultcha: Does Maine grow potatoes, or is it the main variety of the crop?
luv2drv95: This is a 'Tall Tale' postcard done by putting multiple images done together to creat an amusing/exaggerated scene-- essentially, it's Victorian photoshop. The colour is done through a photochrome process, which also was popular in the late Victorian period.
yes, maine does produce 'maine potatoes', but not 'main potatoes'.
In other words, SpiritBear, a load of something else? ;)
