Printed Ephemera — 1845-1870
Card, valentine card
Valentine's card printed with identical lithographed image of a young man helping his lover down steps from a stone building into a garden. The image has been partly handcoloured and is, therefore, unfinished. Below is printed a four line love verse and the image is surrounded by an elaborate border, part coloured incorporating an image of cupid firing his arrow from the top of the page. The print is marked 'Drawn on stone by R.E.Sly 46 Upper Seymour St Euston Square'.
