Talk:Holy card

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I grew up as a Catholic . I never knew they were called 'Holy cards' . They were sort of devotional or novena material. They were just part of the 'Catholic culture'.--Jondel 23:59, 2 Aug 2004 (UTC)

I was never a Roman Catholic, but I find them intriguing; they seem to be the last place where the traditional attributes of the saints in art --- something everybody used to know, a part of medieval pop culture --- can still be found. Smerdis of Tlön 01:53, 3 Aug 2004 (UTC)
