Tri-fold Valentine's Day card. Inside sentiment: "If I were a COP I'd never say STOP When you took a walk on my 'beat' I'd give you my arm To keep you from harm And see you across every street! Displayed on the cover is a brown-haired boy and blonde-haired girl. The boy is wearing a blue police-like cap with a red heart on the brim and blue and white pin stripe shorts, blue button down long sleeve jacket, and blue socks and black shoes. The girl is wearing a pink dress with red hearts and a pink long sleeved jacket, pink hat, pink socks, black shoes, and carrying a green handbag over her right arm. One of the boy's hands is held up in the air and his other hand is around the pole of a stop sign. The girl is walking towards the boy but her head is looking over her shoulder behind her. Hearts border the card. Printer markings on the back of the card: the letters GB inside a bell which stands for the Golden Bell series. The number 3 is inside a circle above the bell. Below the bell: Reg. U.S. Pat. Off. L 7231-B Made in U. S. A.
