LePages Glue Mends Everything
We did a little Google research on this card. It’s interesting, and too much to write about here. The card wasn’t postally mailed, and while it looks like all of this was handwritten by someone, in fact the only extra writing is in those two clefts through the heart, and a small pencil mark on the reverse. This card dates back to the early 1900s, according to the copyright date. Grade: 2

Price: $2.00
