View Antique 1909 Cupid Valentine Postcard Embossed Die-Cut Lace Daffodils with current marketplace pricing, condition, product images and item details. This exquisite antique Valentine's Day postcard from 1909 features a charming Victorian-era design. The central image depicts a winged Cupid wearing a silver crown and a red heart pendant, emerging through a heart-shaped frame adorned with a purple striped bow. The scene is beautifully framed by vibrant yellow daffodils and set against an intricate, embossed white lace-pattern background that gives the card a delicate, three-dimensional texture. A poetic verse at the bottom adds a touch of romantic sentiment: 'I send to you this purple Bow, A loyal one I ween, To pledge to you my vow, My Love, my Heart, my Queen.' The reverse side reveals a fascinating glimpse into the past with a hand-written message, a green one-cent Benjamin Franklin postage stamp, and a clear postmark from February 18, 1909. Part of the 'Heart Valentine Series No. 2,' this embossed lithograph is a wonderful example of early 20th-century holiday ephemera, perfect for collectors of vintage holiday greetings or Edwardian-era artwork.
