Valentine card
Publisher: Unknown
Comic valentine with hand-coloured lithograph of a gentleman with a fox's head who holds a cane in his right hand and looks upwards to a window from where two women are staring down at him. A printed verse below: "'Tis a Fox of which I see / The very counterpart in thee / It is a sly and artful creature / Without one kind redeeming feature.". The inside pages are blank. From the same series as two other cards mounted on the same album leaf: P.14412-R-47 and P.14412-R-48.
