                             Introduction                             
======================================================================
Valentine and Sons was a printing company founded in Dundee, Scotland
in 1851 by James Valentine (1815-1879), that grew to become Scotland's
leading manufacturer of picture postcards.

Following James Valentine's death the company was run by his sons,
William Dobson Valentine (1844-1907) and George Valentine (1852-1890).

The company was purchased by John Waddington Limited in 1963, who sold
it in turn to Hallmark Cards in 1980. Valentine and Sons' operations
ceased in 1994.
