Clams, oysters, and scallops have long been among the most popular
seafood. Provided here is a unique and extensive examination of
them, colorfully illustrated with over 350 alluring postcard and
trade card images, some dating back over 100 years. A thorough text
discusses the lives of these bivalves, how and where they are
harvested, historical marketing strategies, their cultural and
social significance, and much more. Also included is an informative
look into clam bars, oyster houses, and other eateries past and
present, large and small. There is also a chapter devoted to
shellfish humor and a sampling of tasty recipes for readers to try.
Prices are given for the cards used as illustrations. Anyone with
an interest in seafood, history, or postcards will surely want to
add this title to their library.
