I remember those cards....nice shot #219187Donna J. Taff February 26, 2005
Great image; I remember card's like this. I even have a few that were sent to my Mom when she was a girl and she's now 75! Great job, Steve!!! #1134948Leanne M.E. Boyd February 26, 2005
I as well, cute shot Steve! #1135077Marsha S. Smith February 26, 2005
Steve, I think I like this better than any of the other "love" shots this month. Every one of us (past a certain age that is) remembers Valentine's Day at school when we all traded these. And back then everyone got cards from everyone so no one got hurt. I was born in 1952 so I guess I was in grade school in the 60's. #1135157Mata Patan February 26, 2005
Wow Steve this is wonderful!!Jane Summa February 26, 2005
"Love" has many connections & "memories" is one of them. Whether they are stored in our hearts or in a shoebox, "Love" will always be there in any form, shape, or size.Norman P. Banks February 26, 2005
Love the color, clarity and composition Steve. Also the choice of subject matter is... well, choice! (smile)Norm ,:-) #1135334

great image Steve - perfect love sampling for this months theme!Steve Mescha February 26, 2005
Thanks to all who took a look and enjoyed these old Valentine cards.Marsha, you remended me that YES, we were taught a lesson in fairness with the Valentine exchange, but I remember being quite selective as to who got which Valentine. My favorite part was decorating the shoe boxes we used as our "mail box" Enjoy the rest of your weekend, everyone! #1135712

Oh my, Steve! You've really brought back some memories for us ancient ones! Terrific job on this!! #1135832Laurence Saliba February 26, 2005
Brilliant image Steve!!!! Nice colours too!!! #1135884Steve Mescha February 26, 2005
Thanks Debra and Lawrence. You know, I didn't mention this, but it's actually 2 photos. First I layed a bunch of the cards on the table and shot them, but then it occured to me that the real story was the shoe box, so I shot again and layered them in photoshop. #1135921Judy S.

Terrific image, Steve! Very cute! It does bring back memories. I was selective about who got which valentine card too. :) #1136486Kathleen K. Parker February 27, 2005
