1913 vintage postcard. A little girl in a darling green checkered dress wearing a straw bonnet. She ties a red ribbon bow around the neck of her well-behaved puppy that sits atop a stool. They both look out at you, smiling. The bow has a big red heart decorated with pink flowers hanging from the ribbon collar of the puppy. Truly a sweet vignette with a play on the innocence of first, true love.
Valentine Greetings
Please don't disdain my heart to keep -
It may be, as you claim,
Just Puppy-love, But it's mighty deep
And lasting just the same.
