WELCOME TO OUR LITTLE GALLERY OF HOLY CARDS, FEATURING VERY OLD STYLE HOLY IMAGES AND SOME NEWER ONES, TOO, OF SAINTS AND MARTYRS.
Note: Our Lady is a Saint, but in the order of grace she is above all the Angels and Saints and thus merits her own holy card gallery, which we hope to have in the future. It impossible to display every holy card we have of the Saints, but we hope this selection will delight you all. Some of the cards are in poor condition, we left them almost as they are. Decorative motifs, trims and text application, are those of CT.
