Rare Vintage Mechanical Valentine Card with Black Girl

Selling this fine vintage MechanicalValentine depicting a young whimsical black girl with a large bowl of red hearts. By her bare feet is an elephant toy on wheels.

This great card has a circular feature on the backside that turns like a dial.

Each movement of this dial creates many new details. The mouth opens more and more, her hand will keep extending towards her mouth with a heart in her hand until it ends up in her mouth. Then half way around you will see her hand with one finger pointing.

This card is in great condition and is intact and complete. There is very minor minor creasing and surface marks. There is a tiny point on her head where there is crease in the small patch of hair that extends up a bit on top of her head. No tears, stains or writing on the front.

Back is written lightly in pencil from the sender.

Also a small applied tab on the back that when extended ables to card to stand freely on its own.

Card measures 5-1/8” tall. 6” wide.

Greeting printed on the bowl-

VALENTINE

GREETINGS

Backside does have brown toning/foxing spots. Marked PRINTED IN GERMANY twice on the back.
