Description

A Valentine's Day greeting card, ca. 1900s. The card is in color, heart shaped, and embossed. The border has a floral pattern surrounding the edges. At the center of the card, front side, is a cherub looking child with blond hair, blue eyes and wearing a white blouse. Also there is a printed dedication, "A Token of Love." The reverse side has a printed message, surrounded by a collection of arrowed hearts, with scrolls. The entire message is not clear, as there is adhesive backing adhered to the back, from either a photo album or scrapbook mounting paper. Aside from light discoloration, and minor surface soiling, it is in good condition.
