Gerald), sports, music, everyday chores and religious rituals.

Metal stereotypes (set on wooden blocks) of illustrations (many by Fr. Gerald McCann OFM Cap. with some by Grace Perry) of Franciscan life published in 'The Capuchin Annual'. The themes include Christmas festivities, pranks and mischiefs involving Capuchins (some of the friars depicted, including Fr. Senan Moynihan OFM Cap., were known to Fr. Gerald), sports, music, everyday chores and religious rituals. Several of the blocks depict more general aspects of religious devotion including representations of saints, the nativity, symbols and crests, missionaries and the clergy. Some of the blocks have annotations on the reverse indicating the theme of the illustration. These include:
• ‘This place is holy’.
• ‘Joy in the struggle’.
• ‘St. Francis of Assisi / the builder’.
• ‘People in love’.
• ‘Building together’.
• ‘Call to praise’.
• ‘Peace and goodness’.
• ‘St. Francis and the Wolf’. The cover illustration of 'The Capuchin Annual' by Seán O’Sullivan RHA.
