Last month I offered many antique valentines from around the 1850's and I have a few more here to list on ebay. This is a quarto sized Valentine...in near MINT condition...slight foxing to the main paper lace front, and a bit of lace loss (say THAT 10 times fast! LOL) on the upper sheet. Lots of hand painting on this...cherub, ladies, bird, flowers, urn, foliage....with a touch of gold scrap and a few die-cuts. Very front center peels forward to reveal a poem on gold and silver foil hidden behind rose and leaves. Small church lace scrap at bottom (this appears to have been added later as it is a different color lace, and really just doesn't belong on this card...maybe new owner will want to carefully remove it) All in all...EXCELLENT, near perfect Valentine!.
