A sentimental Valentine built around a small child and a bright red heart, the kind of image that made the holiday's card trade so popular in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Cards like this were often printed in large runs with a blank or semi-printed panel, so senders could add a handwritten note to a sweetheart, relative, or friend. The phrase "To One I Love" was a common greeting of the period, signaling affection without naming anyone in particular. Lithographed valentines of this era often mixed children, flowers, and hearts, reflecting a fashion for sweet, nostalgic imagery in mass-produced greetings.
