This is a unique vintage sick call set for the home. It is a beautiful, gold-painted corpus on a wood cross with the figures of the Blessed Virgin Mary and Saint Joseph to either side. The back opens to reveal a box that contains all the items needed for the priest’s visit. This set contains a petite holy water bottle, two unused wax candles, and cotton still in the original cellophane. There are two candleholders and a slot for standing the crucifix upright, making this a complete home altar.

Last Rites/Sick Call sets: These boxes are used in Catholic homes to store the items needed by a priest for the anointing of the sick and for extreme unction. The only items necessary for these rites are a crucifix, blessed candles, and holy water. However, many sets would often have had additional items such as cotton for the oil, a linen cloth, a spoon, a plate, and prayer books.
