    These are Valentines from the 1940's-50's, that I found in a box at the Flea Market in August 2018, and a Sunrise from the Day! :^D
    The first set, are some of the Cards that opened, to reveal more information, in the second set. The third, are a selection of some of the other Valentines Day Cards, there were a lot more, some doubles from different classmates! Forth is the Sunrise on the Day, at a time when the Sky was full of Smoke, from all the Fires that were burning in California, a Terrible Fire Season, that has now been controlled!
    The box of Cards came from an Estate Sale, the Seller told me, and contained Cards of all different types, that actually told a story of the collector's Life, from Elementary School to High School Graduation, and from getting, Married to having Children. Along with the Valentines Day Cards, were Birthday Cards, Graduation Cards, Wedding Cards, Congratulations On The Birth Of Your New Baby, and Sorry For Your Loss(of a Parent I assumed). All the Cards appeared to be to the same Girl, Woman, Bride, and Mother, over a 20+ year time period, and were kept in very good condition, some with Envelopes.

    Thank you for looking, and all comments are welcome! :^)
