Valentine card
Publisher: Unknown
Embossed white paper with shaped edges mounted with a lace-paper roundel on paper springs (one has come unglued) at the centre affixed with an embossed scrap of a broken column with ivy growing around the base. A gilt-edged embossed 'book' with the motto: 'ONLY THINE'. The broken column with ivy suggests that this may have been a memorial valentine.
