The turkey farm.
Tichnor Bros. Robin Hood Model Turkey Farm. ([c. 1930-51], [s.l.]). 137 x 90 mm. / HTN collection.

By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2013-09-07. Revised by Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2022-05-27.

Heaven knows what prompted retired engineer Thomas G. Jamieson to name his turkey farm near Pleasant Lake, Mass., after Robin Hood. The state of the art farm was well-established by 1939. Its products, "Cape Cod Cranberry Turkeys", were evidently luxury goods sent to connoisseurs all over the USA.[1] I do not know exactly where the farm was located.
