I'm a little late to the game; as I post this, Valentine's Day is just about over. However, I can't let it go by without posting some of these great vintage cards I found via Flickr. There were lots of cute V-Day cards featuring fuzzy animals and Peanuts characters back in the day and when I was growing up. However, these define explanation--they're just downright creepy; sure to scare your Valentine rather than put them in the mood for sexy times. Some of them leave me so speechless they're best presented without commentary.
Nothing says romance like an arm bathed in blood while doing a little butchery.
Something about this illustration reminds me of Eraserhead; never a good thing.
What is it with these creepy characters in some of these cards? This butler has crazy eyes; I'm deeply suspicious about the origins of the heart he's carrying.
I think the best thing about this card is that it was a Hallmark.
I hope everyone had a nice Valentine's Day!![]()
