Penny Dreadfuls for Valentine's Day

Have you ever received or even heard of a Penny Dreadful?
Some people call them vinegar valentine's.
I had never seen one or heard of them, until of all places our ladies small group this morning.
Below are a couple of examples of these (HUMOROUS) Rude, insulting little messages that were sent, sometimes even in stages or parts. To add insult to injury at one point in time the recipient of mail paid the postage~
