Paul Morriss Henry of Fayetteville presents a Valentine to his teacher, Mrs. Carolyn Thorne, in 1973. The outside of the card reads “A Valentine for You, You’re So Nice.”

According to the Hallmark Cards, Inc. website, approximately 190 million cards are exchanged on Valentine’s Day (this doesn’t include kids’ classroom valentines), making Valentine’s Day the second largest holiday for giving greeting cards. Christmas ranks number one with some 2 billion cards sent.
