The Paper Proposal Collection
Each plate is a detail of the original “pocket puzzle” made in the early 1800s.
It appears to be an offer of marriage. To whom and from whom is unknown.
The folded square piece of paper appears to have held a ring within.

"This heart which you do now behold,
Will break when you these lines unfold,
Even so my heart, with lovesick pain,
So wounded is, will break in twain."
