Healy was a captain in the 1st Battalion of the Dublin Brigade of the Irish Volunteers and was a participant in the 1916 Rising. One of the cards (with Irish text) has a photographic print. It was produced by Brian na Banban, a pseudonym used by Brian O’Higgins (1882-1963), a founding member of the Volunteers and himself a 1916 veteran.
