Loving Greeting to My Valentine

Loving Greeting to My Valentine | Print | Wisconsin Historical Society
Valentine's Day card with three, die cut pieces. The middle piece is a sleigh pulled by one horse. There are three children in the sleigh; one boy is driving, and a girl and a boy are sitting and holding hands. They are all wearing coats trimmed with fur. The girl has a scarf on her head and the two boys have fur hats. A fur robe is hanging over the side of the sleigh, and the text: "Loving Greeting to My Valentine" is printed on it. The top and bottom pieces are horses, which are hinged through the middle piece so they appear three dimensional. Chromolithograph, embossed and die cut.
