May the Fourth be with You: Vintage Fireworks Fourth of July Postcards!

Fireworks have been a part of Independence Day celebrations for 250 years. Fireworks, though, can be dangerous, especially for children. That's why I find these Vintage Postcards so odd. Today this would be considered "child endangerment." Have a safe Fourth of July... with Liberty and Justice for All!

Extraordinary how terrifying each of these "poses" would be to a real-life parent or grandparent in 2026. Here in Switzerland, the rules about setting off private fireworks have gotten stricter over the forty years that I've lived here, and I, for one, approve. Fewer children (and adults) are losing fingers and eyes.
