A powder blue valentine made from a delicate and intricate lace paper.

“These pretty missive gifts and letters are commonly sent upon this occasion to and from the young people who love each other in a pleasant and innocent way.
It proves how friends and kindred may use the post-office to remind one another of their mutual claims to affection”.
