A bride and groom, joined by a printed wedding verse, make this postcard a sentimental keepsake rather than a simple portrait. Illustrated cards like this were widely mailed in the early twentieth century, when many people sent printed greetings for weddings, engagements and anniversaries instead of writing long letters. Cards of this kind were often lithographed in bright color and carried short rhymes meant to be read aloud or tucked into a scrapbook. Its place on a Valentine's Day board reflects how romantic cards of the period were grouped together, since the same sentiments of devotion and partnership crossed many occasions.
