A unique, authentic vintage lot of Catholic sacramentals dedicated to Saint Padre Pio of Pietrelcina. These rare devotional pieces date to the period when the faithful were praying for his beatification (historically placing the items between 1969 and his beatification in 1999).
What is Included in This Devotional Lot:
Handkerchief Touch Relic: A printed cloth devotional handkerchief featuring an illustration of Padre Pio with stigmata mitts and an Italian ribbon banner reading "P. Pio Ovunque...".
The original paper insert reads: "Handkerchief has Padre Pio's blessing and was touched to his tomb." It remains clean and crisp inside its original clear cellophane wrapper.
Original Handwritten Provenance Envelope: The original vintage paper mailing envelope featuring cursive script detailing the items' unique background: "The medals & handkerchief have P. Pio Blessing on them & were also touched to his Tomb."
Two Touch Relic Medals: Includes one ornate silver-tone portrait pin/medal and one gold-tone cutout cross frame portrait pendant. According to the original accompanying vintage envelope, these medals were blessed and touched to his tomb alongside the handkerchief.
Prayer for Beatification Holy Card: An original vintage bi-fold prayer pamphlet published by the Padre Pio Foundation of America (The Missionaries of the Holy Apostles, Cromwell, Connecticut). Features the official "Prayer for the Beatification of Padre Pio."
Condition Details:
Excellent vintage condition overall. The handkerchief is immaculate and unthrown. The holy card is structurally sound with fully legible print. The envelope shows light vintage yellowing, minor creasing, and wear consistent with age, providing excellent historical context and physical provenance. Please review all high-resolution photos for exact condition.
