A Valentine Card for You

Valentine Postcards

The Middleville and District Museum has several Valentine cards in its Collection. The common themes of cupid figures, flowers, hearts and doves are depicted in many of them.  In some cases, the cards were made into post cards and were sent through the mail with a handwritten personal message. In school, students would be tasked with drawing valentine themed artwork. Be sure to check out the Museum's extensive greeting card collections for various holidays on your next visit.
