Pauline (Gobur) Kolbush (born c.1865 Austria/Poland) with her turkey. Although most likely not a pet, I am sure she was still quite proud of her bird.

My mother and uncles grew up on a farm in rural New Brunswick (CAN) in the 20s/30s/40s and they've often told me how their mother would warn them not to get attached to the poultry! She meant the hens because the turkeys were actually not that friendly!
This is the fourth "Smile for the Camera" entry that concerns farms - who would have guessed!
Oh my! Thanks for sharing this very interesting photo!
