Vinegar Valentines ... distasteful?
Do you collect
"vinegar Valentines"?
My mother told me about these
years ago, and though I do not
have any of them,
some of them are pretty entertaining.
These greeting cards, or rather
insult cards were decorated with a caricature
and an insulting poem to be given to a spinster,
floozy, whiner, etc.
They were first produced in the
mid-1800's and they
enjoyed their greatest popularity
in the first quarter of the 20th century.
These postcards were usually sent anonymously
and postmasters sometimes confiscated them
stating they were unfit to be mailed!
Can you believe that?

I would not have enjoyed
receiving one of these on
Valentine's Day!
Would you?
