As a serious collector, I am honored to have been mentioned in the John Johnson Collection blog. For forty years, I have hoped to help establish this as a field for scholarship, and I am thrilled to read the wonderful contributions at #loveheritage. My focus has been the historic evolution of The Valentine and the Ephemera of Love. From early printed Writers and Bartolozzi, for example, to Esther Howland and American folk art, it is a comprehensive chronicle of the social development of this important subject, and I look forward to sharing my images and research. I hope you will add me to your list!
