Valentine card
Publisher: Unknown
A small sachet valentine of pink and white embossed and coated lace-paper with a central oval panel mounted with a large flower scrap of violets. A wad of pink tissue paper can be seen through the lace perforations. The sachet is contained within a sleeve of silver and white embossed and die-cut paper with two doors which open to reveal the sachet inside. The doors are 'sealed' with a flower scrap of narcissi which is pasted onto the left-hand door. Mounted with three other sachet valentines on the same album leaf. P.14417-R-46 is held in place with a length of ribbon original to the card which is threaded through the album leaf.
