Description
Photograph was edited for publication purposes
Photograph caption dated November 18, 1950 reads "November is a bad month for turkeys, anyway, so Tom (perched on the hay bale) isn't really so bad off. He's got Piper Laurie to tempt him to his doom with an ear of corn, and Piper, ear of corn or not, is tempting enough to make Tom's last few hours worth going to pot over."
