DESCRIPTIVE DATA
----------------
object type: Comic valentine (deceitful street trader type). A hand-coloured woodcut on very thin wove paper, which is folded in half to create an inside page (blank). The hand-colouring is crudely executed. A male figure with an over-sized head with a quill behind his ear measures a packet of "Assam Dust" in a pair of scales. A box of "best" cheese is being eaten by mice. A printed verse below: "You sell inferior Goods, my boy, / And your Weights are light also, / And you pretend to make a little mistake, / In giving change I know. / Go, hide yourself from public view, / I would not have a cheat like you." From a series of comic figures.
