Card, valentine card

Comic valentine's card printed as a woodcut on cheap paper with a caricature of a demon holding a black heart on a pitchfork. The print is crudely coloured and below is printed a verse, 'Old Nick has got the thing at last, All on his pitchfork right and fast; All eyes rejoice at such a part, So damnable, so black a heart. When born, 'twas bad, but now we're glad, To see so foul a knave made sad; And every imp rejoices, see, And clings with brother's love to thee.' One of a collection of sample comic valentines bound in a single volume, stored within a wooden case. On the spine of the case is a label 'Comic'. One of a series of valentine's cards relating to various trades.
