This vintage Catholic Four-Way Medal or emergency identification medal necklace was made in Italy during the 1950s and 1970s time period.
It is a traditional Catholic devotional pendant that consolidates four popular individual religious medals into a single design divided by a central cross.
It also alerts medical responders to request a priest for Last Rites in the event of an emergency.
The four images represent the Sacred Heart of Jesus, St. Joseph holding the infant Jesus, St. Christopher, and the Miraculous Medal (the Virgin Mary).
The reverse side is inscribed with \"I am a Catholic, in case of accident, please call a priest.\"
The looped necklace measures 13.5\"L, and the pendant measures 1.25\"H x .75\"W.
It is in great vintage condition.

I take great care over-packing fragile items with excessive amounts of bubble wrap, and use recycled packing and shipping material when I can.
