Valentine card
Publisher: Unknown
A small, white lace-paper envelope with four flaps which open to reveal a single sheet of white card with pasted layer of silver lace-paper and a central oval window with a silver border which has been roughly cut around the inside edge and contains a chromolithograph of two white cats against a black background. The roughly cut edge and pasted layer suggests that this valentine was adapted, most likely to suit a child, at some point. The card is adhered to the envelope.
