From the mid to late-19th century, Saint Valentine's Day, as it was then known, was celebrated with more romanticism than today. Antique Valentine's Day prints from 19th- century illustrated news weeklies, such as Harper's Weekly, show the romantic nature of the era. Few of these Valentine's Day illustrations have survived. Today, antique Valentine prints make the perfect romantic gift on February 14th (or for the truly romantic, on any day of the year).
