A lovely collection of Victorian Valentine cards. Stand-up 3D and honeycomb paper puffs were popular from about 1895 until 1915. Mechanical cards are from the Victorian Gilded Age and feature automobiles, trains and ships with moving parts. A paper lever would simulate motion. In excellent original condition.
