Roses pink,
These I think -
Will show so true
My love for you.
The following Valentine's Day Cards were used by the Pritchett Family around 1900-1915. Half of them are lavish, 3-dimensional cards, made in Germany. The first 5 cards in the left column are in their flattened state, while the cards next to them in the 2nd column are the same cards folded out. The poem in the previous paragrph is taken from the last card, and perhaps is one of Lulita's first poems. Click any image to get a large version of the card.
