Antique Die-Cut Pop-Up Honeycomb Valentine Apple Blossoms Children
This is a very sweet antique Valentine's Day card. Features a large apple tree with apple blossoms and little red hearts. The top of the tree is a red tissue paper honeycomb. A little boy and girl are sitting on a bench under the tree. Both holding a Valentine. Under the children it says, "Oh, will you be my Valentine? Come, tell me quickly Yes" and "If you say no, I know a girl, who won't refuse, I guess." There is a little mechanical handle that when pulled brings up another little boy, gazing at the little girl and holding a red heart. So very charming!
Measures 11 5/8 by 9 5/8 inches wide. The base 4 inches. Graphics are bright and colorful. The bench where the children are seated needs to be reattached to the back so it stands straight. The little girl has a crease at her neck. Despite these issues, this antique Valentine displays beautifully.
