Two cherubic figures, adorned with wings and draped in blue sashes, are the focal point of this vintage postcard. They hover against a backdrop of a cerulean sky, engaged in crafting Valentine's Day tokens. One cherub delicately strings together red hearts, interspersed with small blue forget-me-nots. The other cherub holds a heart-shaped garland of pink roses. Both figures hold what appear to be quill pens, possibly symbolic of writing love letters. A white dove, wings outstretched in mid-flight, graces the scene above them. The phrase "To my Valentine" is inscribed in elegant cursive at the bottom left. The postcard's reverse reveals an embossed design that echoes the rose garland and cherubic figures, along with a partially obscured postmark dated December 12, 1908, from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It is addressed to Miss L. Bailor on Kenilworth Street in Philadelphia.
