Unknown. Ephemera. Good. I have a trio of odd valentines, vintage, not sure of the date printed or by whom. These are flat paper prints, 10x14", printed in multi-colors, folded with some tears on the edges. The only marking is "Printed in USA." Text on one reads "Your Pipe Dream, To capture the boss, designing Miss, Is your fantastic dream of bliss. That you will trap him, I much doubt - The chances are he'll fire you out."
