Old-Fashioned Love and Romance

I’m very disappointed in this book. Many images were cut from this book. I expected a few but not this many. I’m asking for a refund.

nice clip art

If you enjoy crafting with the Victorian theme this is a wonderful jem to have. All of the pictures are black and white...lovers (some nudes), cupids, jewelry, animals, and flowers among others. Some of the pics are serious and some are comical. Dandies, rakes, husbands or boyfriends...most all hint of love with a woman. Most are couples embracing, holding hands, kissing, dancing or engaging in other flirtatious activities. There is even a wonderful picture of a young boy giving a young girl some flowers in a garden. This is a wonderful source of clip art for the mixed media artist. If you are looking for material with a romantic touch for your next art project try this book.
