Vintage Standup Valentine Card Top Hat and Tails German

Vintage Standup Valentine
Courtier in Top Hat and Tails
This is a early 20th century Stand up Valentine - with some damage as the little man in top hat and tails has broken loose. He needs to be reglued and anchored back in. This one was printed in Germany which around 1900 was the capital of Chromolithographic printing. Very pretty card if you can repair it. And it should be fairly easy. (not for me, I'm a klutz but for a scrapbooker or an artist? Piece of cake!

AUCTION TERMS:
Our merchandise is normally antique or vintage and although top-quality, may have experienced a less than wonderful life before arriving here. So, you should read the description completely and ask us any questions you have, before you bid. One of us is online most of the day (EDT in the US) and we try to answer quickly. Our items are stored in a home free from cigarette smoke but we do have cats.
We spend a great deal of time & effort shopping for the lovely antiques and collectible products we offer. And we do our best to describe them accurately and completely.
SHIPPING
We work hard to get your products to you quickly and safely. Normally your purchase will be shipped within 1-2 days of payment receipt.
Many products ship the same day they are paid for. Any exceptions to this policy will be clearly stated in the description.
We take great care in securely packaging your item. There are multiple layers of bubblewrap, sometime cardboard dividers between items, sometimes we sandwich the bubblewrapped item between layers of cardboard and then use more bubblewrap and packing peanuts for additional cushioning. 
 We try to protect against that. It costs slightly more to wrap that way but YOU are worth it and so is the beautiful item you are bidding on.
Most of our items can be shipped worldwide. MY international shipments do have insurance coverage because I have a policy with a wonderful insurance brokerage – Shipinsurance a 3rd party shipping insurer.  Most international shipments are not traceable and are not guaranteed to arrive within a specified time.
 When more than one item is purchased we only charge the handling charge for the first item. And while we also try use the combined item weight for multiple purchases to keep shipping costs as low as possible, we sometimes must pack items seperately just to make sure your fragile, beautiful purchases will arrive intact.
Insurance is automatic & required on each purchase. It just gives more peace of mind knowing that if it gets lost or broken during transit from us to you, you’re covered and so are we.
As of January 2009 the United State Post Office * not me...them! has again raised postage rates. For the immediate future, if you have are uncertain about the postage charges, please contact us with your mailing addresses thru the ASQ and we'll figure it out for you. It might be better to buy now since shipping only seems to go up lately.
International Buyers Please Note:
Import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer’s responsibility. Please check with your country’s customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding/buying.
These charges are normally collected by the delivering freight (shipping) company or when you pick the item up do not confuse them for additional shipping charges.
We do not mark merchandise values below value or mark items as ‘gifts’ - US and International government regulations prohibit such behavior. It happens to be illegal here and it's also a policy violation on eBay.
FEEDBACK Enough with dinging the DSR stars, already! If you are not happy you should just tell me and we'll work it out! Dinging the stars is a sneaky,  mean thing and not the right way to behave -ask your mother. She'll tell you.
We think we give 5 star Gold service and do a 5 star job of getting your item to you at the most reasonable rate. We'd like to think we deserve 5 stars for every category when you rate us. AND if you don't think so, we'd like to hear from you BEFORE you do the rating to see what we can do to make you happy and change your mind
PAYMENT:
We happily accept Paypal.  Payment is due IN MY HANDS within 7 calendar days from the end of the auction/sale. Late payment = non-payment where I come from. All non-payment gets reported on the 8th day. No exceptions.
RETURN POLICY:
We do not sell on approval. But if I make a mistake on identifying or describing something, we will accept a return providing you contact me first. The item must be postmarked within 3 days of your receipt and arrive in the "as described" condition. Refunds are made when I receive the returned it, and are by the same method as the original payment..
