I found this vintage book page as I sifted through a box of papers at one of my favorite shops yesterday.
The colorful image of the young couple appealed to me.
It was the verse, however, that sealed the deal. I had to have it!
I plan to mat it and frame it and add it to my motley collection of rose-related prints and paintings. One day, I may even get around to hanging it on a wall ... I wouldn't hold my breath, if I were you.

ReplyDeleteThat girl knows her onions, too -- no texting or tweeting the guys in those days; she's got him on a string, hahaha.
Love it!
And it's perfect for your house.

Sweet illustration and verse. I love old books!
ReplyDeleteConsidering the young man's clothes in the illustration, I'd say this is very vintage.
ReplyDeleteLove it!!!
ReplyDelete"Not made up my mind"! Ha! How funny! So much cuter than the usual love poem!
