Small c. 1840s Paper Lace Valentine with (Much Faded) Handwritten Message and Original Envelop tiny shovel 8 7/16" x 6 11/16"I will continue to scoop good early paper lace valentines whenever I find them because I love them, and you seem to, too. This is a lovely small folded one, c. 1840s, with a handwritten message inside, though the ink is much faded and hard to read. And with what I presume is the envelop it was originally delivered in larger than it, but it is pretty rare to find such a small valentine! Addressed to an Andrew Cobb of Parsippany, NJ. Valentine: 2 11 16"
