10 x 12 Valentine. on very fragil paper.like a "pop up" card, with circular cuts out that close down to cover a woman on one side and a man on the other.When closed each has a butterfly on it along with pink roses and leaves. Scroll around edges is black with cherubs holding on to vines. below pop up is poem..as follows..I love thee not for thy beautiful face; I love thee not for thy fairy like grace; I love thee not for the blushes that start Quick to thy face, and fresh from thy heart; I love thee not for thy lily-like hue; But I love thee for thy own heart so true; Not for the person, or grace or spirit, But the noble mind which so few inherit. On reverse is written..Miss Susan P. Mayhews Present
