Antique Handmade Valentine: To Frank from Emily (Look Inside!) navigational Pale blue eyes

Pale blue eyes

where from the late 60s to the late 70s he created works in gold

Her dress is stiff and dirty from age

I love the no fuss boldness and clarity of this old hand-painted sign

or a flag stuck in

Antique Handmade Valentine: To Frank from Emily (Look Inside!) navigational Pale blue eyesYesterday I came across a bunch of old handmade valentines, including this one, filling me with total joy. This may be my favorite of the lot a bit unassuming on the outside, though with this lovely scalloped edging, but then inside 4 hearts for our dear Frank, who I'm very sad seems never to have chosen one to give back to our Emily, who clearly expended a great deal effort on him! Another one that makes my heart ache. 5 3 4" x 3 3 4" closed. C. 1900
