This is one of the largest valentines I've ever seen. It's a Whitney from circa 1920 and measures 8x10". Embossed folder card with verse inside. Florals and gold accents, 3-dimensional. Beige lace which is rare. Nice center scenic view. Two scraps: one of a boy sledding and one of a girl holding her baby doll. Clean and crisp, unsigned. One of the cleanest and crispest valentines from this era that I've seen. T is a little damage to the lace with a few small end bits missing, one small tear/curl. Lace is not a mirror image on both sides, so it's hard to tell what, if anything, is missing. Few small creases to edges. This presents well and would be great to give to that special someone on Valentine's Day. It would be nice matted w/a period frame. Colors are much brighter than my photos suggest--too much flash. **It's Valentine Week. I will be listing several lots of valentines at auction and in my eBay store this week, so please have a look. I will be happy to combine postage, but must include a minimal handling fee for each additional item added to the package to help defray overhead. I have lots of Victorian-early 20th century valentines in my store, in addition to the more modern ones (1930-70s) listed at auction this week.
