Jesus - with children

The Holy Card Collection is an artificial collection of Roman Catholic devotional cards. The core of the collection was assembled from items found in books in the Archbishop Ireland Memorial Library (Saint Paul Seminary) collection. The items date from the late 19th through the 20th centuries and are in multiple languages. Materials in this collection depict a wide range religious iconography and topics (angels, saints, Jesus, the Virgin Mary).

Prayer cards make up the majority of the collection, but examples of funeral cards, souvenir cards, ordination cards, and other Catholic ephemera are also included.
