Whately, MA. Here's what www.roadsideamerica.com has to say: "There is a 17 foot high cement milk bottle on the main road in Whately. Built in the late 1920s by Lincoln Bond for the Quonquont Dairy Farm's dairy bar, the bottle once stood on Rt. 5, greeting visitors to the area. In 1995, the bottle, which is owned by the Whately Historical Society, was moved to its present site and restored. It is now situated in front of the town building, which houses the Historical Society and is used several times a year to dispense ice cream."

This postcard was sent to me from Arizona in 1976, before the climate change, so global warming doesn't explain this strange mutation. And Photoshop didn't exist back then. My theory is that radiation may have caused the grasshoppers to grow like this, what with all those secret atomic test sites in the southwest deserts.

Idaho Potato

MJ Maccardini (trailerfullofpix) has posted:

In the days before television or Photoshop, the farmers in Idaho made their own amusement by challenging each other to grow the juiciest watermelon, the sweetest pear, or the orangest pumpkin. In 1946, Farmer Homer Smith took up the challenge to grow the biggest potato. He spent the long winter in solitary contemplation of this conundrum, and in the spring he put his half-baked theory to the test, employing a combination of careful cross fertilization and liberal application of organic material obtained from the dairy farmer down the road. To the amazement of all, he harvested this whopper in the fall. Being both illiterate and furtive, Farmer Smith neither wrote nor spoke of the details of this fantastic accomplishment, and he took the formula with him to the grave. For a brief time, his cousin Arthur, an insurance agent with a keen eye for a growth industry, had his own success selling potato damage insurance to local homeowners who feared what one of these big guys could do if it rolled off a flatbed truck and into their front parlor. Alas, a potato this big has never been grown again.
