About the banana - I'm assuming a banana was a much more difficult thing to obtain in the 1800s? I mean, I've read enough 19th century American children's novels to know that an orange was considered a delicacy/awesome Christmas gift back in the day in many parts of America. So surely a ripe banana was even rarer? At least in Illinois?
Just guessing and wondering then what the context for the banana might be.
Historian much? lol
