HUMOROUS LITHOGRAPHED VALENTINES
A set of three hand-coloured lithographed valentine cards with embossed borders and comic verses, one reads 'Blear-eyed misshapen, sickly fellow/With hands of red, and face of yellow/And stupid smirke you try to press/On foolish customers some damaged dress/Thinking all day your doltish form/Has taken every heart by storm', 7¼ x 5in., c. 1850.
