Vickers; very minor nicks to tips of spine and corners; a small spot to first page; in about near fine condition.The game, possibly designed to be played on Valentine's Day, was published by the Kohler Company, manufacturers of various remedies and soaps for fits, headaches, blood disorders, corns, etc. (all of them advertised on the wraps verso).
