Collection of printed holy cards, largely of the eighteenth century, for German-speaking Catholics. Each card includes the name and feast day of a saint or spiritual event, an etched or engraved image of that saint or spiritual event, a brief devotional passage, and a summarized hagiography. Some cards appear in duplicate, others in multiple versions, with often significant overlap between versions (such as same text but different image, or same image but different text). Most of the holy cards in this collection include serial numbers, indicating they were part of a set distributed over time to the same group of people, possibly as part of instruction by a religious order. Iconography, particularly the frequent presence of IHS (ΙΗΣΟΥΣ) and MRA (Mediatrix, Auxiliatrix, Reparatrix) monograms, suggests a possible Jesuit connection, especially to Marian Congregations.
