Love Valentine card
Publisher: Unknown
White embossed paper with shaped edges, tinted blue. A central oval of silver embossed paper mounted on paper springs and containing a white silk panel printed with a title and verse: 'LOVE / 'The dearest wish my / heart can form / Beloved one for thee, / Is that thou may'st / enjoy the bliss / Thy love bestows on me'. A scrap of a flower wreath is affixed around the silk panel. Silver bracket ornaments are affixed at the four corners. The interior is blank. A very faint stamp is visible from the verso at lower centre, which could possibly be 'Mullord Brothers'.
