Small Lot of Little Valentines carved pair of birds perhaps especially that blue elephantA few more old handmade valentines, which seem to have been saved by a miss Mildred, who seems to have been a popular girl! I especially love the text on the one at upper right: "you are the candidate for mine I vote for you for Valentine," plus "I love you," at the bottom! Will You Be Mine at upper right measures 3 1 8" x 2 13 16" for example. Sold as a bunch.
