Gazing upon a Victorian valentine is to return for at least a moment to a more romantic era. To hold one today, as fragile as a dream, is to know as the nineteenth century poet Kathrine Lee Bates did,
"Old love is gold love,
old love, the best."
~Sarah Ban Breathnach * Victorian Family Celebrations~
