IDENTIFIERS ----------- id: 214809 accession number: P.14412-R-85 DATE AUDIT ---------- created: Tuesday 14 February 2017 updated: Friday 26 January 2018 DESCRIPTIVE DATA ---------------- object type: Small 48mo playing-card-style 'men and flowers' themed comic valentine with a die-stamped 'lace' edge. A chromolithograph with rounded corners affixed to the centre of 'lace'-edged white card, features a miniature gentleman with Dundreary whiskers holding out a 'Note' with prices on it, two forget-me-not plants in the background dwarf the figure. A scrap affixed above with the motto: MY / DOVE. From a series featuring men with flowers or as hybrid flowers and one of seven mounted in album P.14412-R. P.14374-R and P.14361-R were also originally mounted here. The quality of the art-work in this series is high, although neither the artist nor the manufacturer are known. It is possible that this card was included in the envelope P.14412-R-L7, although the fact that it is mounted on the facing album leaf and kept separate from the eight other cards from the series, suggests more likely that it was not. title: Valentine card LICENSING --------- text license status: CC0 image license status: CC-BY-NC-SA OWNERSHIP --------- instutition: The Fitzwilliam Museum department: Paintings, Drawings and Prints creditline: Bequeathed by Dr J.
