We know from letters written by Glaisher to Catherine Parsons that she encouraged him to frame at least one of his valentines (Fitzwilliam Museum, MS 939-1985, 12th April 1925, letter to Miss Catherine Parsons: 'I quite agree about the Acton one in its box & about framing the pearl one …'.) and P.14615-R is one of four framed valentines in the Glaisher bequest. A 'frame' of gilt and white cameo-embossed lace-paper featuring an archway with lovers, cornucopia and putti, is mounted with paper springs onto a front of white lace-paper. The putti garlanding the archway at upper centre is partially hand coloured. A central oval window contains a Baxter-process print by Joseph Mansell, who was a licensee of the George Baxter colour printing process from around 1850. The print is composed of a 'key' plate of aquatint with stippling and woodblock colour printing overlaid. The image of a couple walking in a garden, the lady wearing flounced crinoline skirts and an ostrich feather in her hat, is one of a series of six images produced by Mansell featuring a courting couple and known as 'Progress of a Courtship'. This particular image is known as 'Courting Days'.
