Description :

Nice group of religious (Catholic) items. Lot includes:

Hollow wooden "sick call" crucifix with hidden compartment containing two candles, Holy Water (now empty), and a cloth. Please note the there is a section of the slide rail missing at the top of the cross obvious when cover is off (see last photo) along with the INHS banner. At some point someone "helpfully" added the stigmata to Christ's hands, feet, and side - definitely has been used over the years & reflects that. Measures 16.5" H x 10.5" W x 2.75" D.

Set of wax hands & a foot purchased at pilgrimage mecca Fatima in Portugal. You choose the body part where your problem is, pray for help, and make a promise that upon your problem being resolved, you will return with the wax figure and burn it in the fire pit at the Shrine of Fatima. Hands measure approx. 6.5" H, foot measures 8.5" L.

Also included is a Jesus wall thermometer from Glas-Kraft (measures just over 7" H) and three 3-D Italian religious cards. One shifts from Mother Mary to Jesus while the second shifts from Mother Mary holding a crucifix to Mother Mary touching her necklace (nail of the True Cross on the necklace, possibly?). The final card's transition is a bit more jarring: it shifts from St.Christopher carrying Christ on his shoulder to modern trains, planes, and automobiles  - no doubt because he is the patron saint of travel, but it's not a subtle shift like the others!. Cards measure approx. 3.25" H x 2" W.
