Description

A pop-up Valentine's Day card, dated 1928. The card has an image of a girl holding a bouquet of roses and a heart on a stick and who is surrounded by floral bouquets and stylized heart designs. At the bottom is panel reading "To my Valentine," which, when pushed down, moves the figure against the backdrop described above. On the reverse is a pencil inscription dedication and the year written in ink. There is also a printed "Made in Bavaria" statement. With some browning at the bottom and some edge rubbing and light soiling, the condition is good.
