Happy Image 2: May Berries and May Poles

After I said I was only going to post happy images for awhile I had the hardest time finding one!!

This is a John Lewis Child's catalog from 1895.  I am beginning to think the sweet spot for "happy" is 1895 -1903.  That is open (real open!) for revision.  There is a lot of "sweet" around in the years prior to that period, but not this utopian happy, or even goofy happy.
The May Berry must be some sort of Rubus.
