Dear Valentine
Image
Valentine's Day card with a boy pumping water while a girl is scrubbing a heart in a tub. He is wearing a blue outfit and she is wearing a lacy blouse. A sign and fence with a dove perched on it are in the background. The pump top originally had a paper honeycomb that would open up, and the back had a paper easel that is missing. The text "Dear Valentine" is on the sign and "my heart is pumping for you" is on the pump. Offset lithography, embossed and die cut in Germany.
