Victorian Love's Greeting Valentine Card with Cherub & Envelope

The first thing that strikes a modern viewer is a curly-haired child in a yellow outfit bursting out of a giant teal envelope like some kind of Edwardian postal ambush — wings apparently optional, because this little romantic operative is working without them. The envelope, helpfully labeled 'Love's Greeting to my Valentine' in case you somehow missed the two decorative red hearts stamped directly onto its flap, is also inexplicably accessorized with what appears to be a feathered quill jutting out at a jaunty angle. Floating in the upper right corner, three stacked red hearts hover with the quiet confidence of a threat. Somewhere between 'adorable' and 'this child has been living in my mailbox,' this card is the Victorian equivalent of showing up unannounced.
