Antique Stand-Up Victorian Valentine Card (c.1909–1912) — Embossed Cherub, Dove & Roses — 10" x 7"

$19.99$0.00

This is an antique stand-up Valentine from about 1909 to 1912, an embossed die-cut card with a pop-out cherub, a white dove, deep red roses, and a blue ribbon banner reading Love's Message and to my Valentine.

It shows edge and corner wear with small bends, a small paper loss at a top corner, age toning and light spotting on the back, and handling wear along the pop-out edges, and the easel stand is present and works.

The ribbon verse reads From day to day I tell you, dear, The thought of you My heart does cheer, and a small heart at the bottom says With True Love. The layered paper stands on its own fold-out easel back, so you can set it on a shelf without a frame.

Questions buyers ask

Every listing spells it out and shows it in photos. Chips, hairlines, crazing, worn plating, old repairs. If I did not mention it, it is not there.

Yes. Every photo is the actual piece, taken by me. When it sells, it is gone.

I note maker, mark, era, and measurements when I can confirm them, and say so plainly when I cannot. Unmarked pieces get dated by what the piece itself shows.

I process order within 2 business days, wrapped and boxed so it arrives the way it left here. Don't forget, free shipping on orders $35 and up.
