(Sample Book) Valentine Samples 1923.
Worcester, Mass: The Geo. C. Whitney Co., (1922?) 4to., wrappers, (40)pp. Catalogue contains 81 sample valentines, approximately 25 cards are missing. Cards in very good to fine condition, light wear to extremities, very good overall.

The George C. Whitney Company was in operation from 1888 to 1942, and was one of the finest producers of American valentines and greeting cards of the period (George Whitney himself trained under Esther Howland, the most famous designer of American valentines of the 19th century). This sample book represents the later work of the company, though there are a number of examples of the highly ornate, three dimensional cards that made the company famous. A beautiful sample catalogue, representing a wide range of popular design of the period.
