The Big Red Apple of Cornelia
On the back side of the post card it reads "Eat Georgia Apples. Gobble them." the image is of a real monument in the very real town of Cornelia Georgia. The Big Red Apple atop the pedestal weighs 5,200 pounds and is 7 feet tall. It was built in 1925 after the end of WWI simply to pay homage to the apple and apple growers of Cornelia. More here.
