Queen of the Universe Valentine

Queen of the Universe Valentine
An Art Deco mechanical valentine (moving the arm causes the eyes to move back and forth) from the 1930s. This reminds me of Slim Pickens riding the bomb down to the ground at the end of Dr. Strangelove.

"Queen of the Universe"
We seem so far apart--
Please aim your trusty rocket
Directly for my heart!
