Publisher's Synopsis
Culled from the collection of Alan Mays, the internet's most prolific collector of antique acquaintance cards, comes this set of forty-eight flirtation cards (twenty-four unique designs, each printed twice) to tear out and give as a valentine, joke, or token of affection (or to keep for a laugh). The cards are four-colour scans of original antique documents, encased in a hardcover binding the size of an extra-large business card, which adds to the feel of an artifact from a different time. The tone of each card is humourous and astonishing, a time capsule to another era's social traditions, but the messages are still incredibly apt. These cards are the perfect sweet-but-not-saccharine gift for Valentine's Day, anniversaries, and dates.
