Original - 1883 advertisement for a greeting card company's Valentine's Day cards.

Reason: Getting a bit of lead time in for the 2010 Valentine's Day POTD, to avoid the hilarious chaos of 2008.[1] ;) Restored version of File:Prang's Valentine Cards.jpg.

Comment Words cannot describe how much this image creeps me out. The strangest thing is that I have no idea why. Nezzadar [SPEAK] 04:15, 29 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Support A good image, still creeping me out, but with decent EV and of high caliber. Nezzadar [SPEAK] 04:50, 29 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I understand your feeling - the image is quite surreal. Is that the way Valentine's Day is described in the article? Elekhh (talk) 06:52, 29 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Nothing makes me want to buy flowers and have sex like babies on string. Do we not have an article on the company? Is it Louis Prang? If so, this would drastically ~~include~~ improve his article... J Milburn (talk) 11:31, 29 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Possibly; will double check. :) Durova³⁴⁸ 14:57, 29 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  - You appear to be quite right.[2] Think it would be on the safe side of NOR to attribute this to his firm and use at his article? Durova³⁴⁸ 16:18, 29 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    - Why not, spread the creepy babies around! Nezzadar [SPEAK] 19:16, 29 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
      - Okay, done. Durova³⁴⁸ 19:40, 29 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
        Cool. Support for the use on the Prang article. J Milburn (talk) 10:59, 30 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Support I'll pretend to take credit for finding this even though you already had it. Staxringold _talk^contribs 20:08, 29 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Support on basis of EV for Louis Prang. Elekhh (talk) 23:41, 29 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Support The old advertising could be used in present for campaigns like "make a love, more children" :-) I thought the flying babies with wigs are angels or a sort of Cupid. --Caspian blue 00:30, 30 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Support. Eh, I've seen worse (horrible fruit-headed mutants, anyone? Maybe a cannon?) --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 14:53, 30 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I missed every one of those references. All I could think of were the Fruit of the Loom costume live actors from the commercials when you said fruit mutants. Links please? Nezzadar [SPEAK] 21:32, 30 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Scarred for life twice in the same nomination. We're on a roll! Nezzadar [SPEAK] 21:55, 30 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
