Thanksgiving dinner 60 cents

A restaurant in South Boston, Virginia advertising Thanksgiving dinner on its windows. The photo caption says that was possibly taken in 1940, but it was probably 1933 since Thanksgiving day was November 30th that year.

The sign says (truly): "Eat Your Thanksgiving 'Turk' Here: And Save Your Wife For A Pet At Home!" and "60cents Thurs Nov 30th"
