Description: Printed colour image of a man in a top hat, monocle and black fabric suit in a cigar shop. Beneath is a poem: 'In your dandified hat,/From your boot to your glove,/I think I've quite pat,/Drawn your portrait above;/Pray don't take offence,/Nor to anger incline,/In dress shown more sense,/Your queer Valentine.'
