A lithographed verse below: "Dear Girl the hand I fondly press'd / Tho' trembling still was not withdrawn. ...". G. KERSHAW / LONDON, embossed at lower left and right. An inscription in graphite on the album leaf: "G. Kershaw". Similar inscriptions, probably in the same hand, mainly transcribing maker details, are found elsewhere on the leaves of this album and also throughout album P.14344-R. These inscriptions were made by Miss Catherine Parsons who was a close friend of Glaisher towards the end of his life and undertook to arrange and mount his valentine collection into albums from the Autumn of 1924 through to the Summer of the following year and beyond. See letters from Glaisher to Parsons in the Fitzwilliam Museum archive.
