...and I've seen some doozies, lemmetellya.

"The Stuff I Find At Work" Dept.:



Unlike many cherubs, Mortimer really didn't enjoy his line of work.




Trimmed from the March 5th, 1881 issue of HARPER'S BAZAR, a reproduction of a print by Percival DeLuce titled "Valentine's Messengers".



Details to follow below, some of them in greyscale to lessen the moiree effect left over by the scan.















Probably one more before today is over.

victoriana, holiday fun, victorian women, as good as it gets, vintage surrealism
