Valentine's Day in Sheridan, 100 Years Ago


100 years ago, Sheridanites celebrated in a mostly low-key fashion, with luncheons and dinner parties. The Coffeen store was the place to go for V-Day décor. Click on the images below to enlarge.






Two women, Sarah Leitner and Frances Josselyn, went all out the evening after, hosting what sounds like quite an elegant and colorful party. Guests were even treated to bluebird place cards with a “dainty message” from St. Valentine himself.
