Thanksgiving Photos from 'Life': Turkey Bride
In this photo, a woman is modeling her turkey feather wedding dress.
No, seriously. The caption reads, "Turkey feather wedding bride Barbara O. Ehrhart, posing with prize turkey carcass." It was taken in 1947, in Turlock, California, by Charles E. Steinheimer.
I don't know anyone, fashionista or not, who would wear turkey feathers for her wedding. Based on other photos in this series, it appears Ms. Ehrhart used turkey feathers in all her bridal party's dresses.
But the real question here is did they cook the turkey she is posing with for their wedding feast?
