My favorite is the first, the watermelon, because the melons appear to have markings very close to those I recall as a child. In late Spring and Summer, wagon loads of those melons appeared each Saturday, which was the day that farm families came to town for supplies. In Mississippi in the 1930s, those were known as "rattlesnake" watermelons, and were the preferred variety.
