1940réf. List3839Rutherford New Jersey: Garrway Co 1940. Real photo postcard measuring approximately 3 ½ x 5 ½ inches. Photograph shows a priest celebrating Mass at an outdoor altar attached to a streamlined trailer chapel with several women kneeling or seated before it. Captioned in the negative: "Chapel Car 'The Crusader of the Divine Child' destined for China" and "Go ye into the whole world and preach the Gospel to every creature. St. Luke 16.15." Divided postcard back unused printed for the Franciscan Mission Crusade 812 N. Salina Street Syracuse New York with "Help the Missions" appeal and Proverbs 19:17 quotation. Some wear and toning; very good. A real photo postcard showing the Franciscan Mission Crusade's chapel car "The Crusader of the Divine Child" described here as destined for China. The image shows a mobile Catholic altar built into a trailer with a priest vested for Mass and a small outdoor congregation gathered before him. The verso identifies the card as a mission fundraising or promotional piece issued by the Franciscan Mission Crusade of Syracuse New York. Another cataloged example of this image identifies the scene as a Catholic mobile chapel at Hingan Fu Shensi China suggesting that the trailer may have reached the mission field rather than remaining only a fundraising image produced in the United States. The combination of American fundraising address named chapel car China destination and another cataloged example located at Hingan Fu gives the card a fuller paper trail than most missionary postcards of mobile chapels. American Catholic missionaries were active in China through the first half of the twentieth century but their work was largely disrupted after the Communist victory in 1949 when foreign missionaries were expelled and Catholic institutions were reorganized under state pressure.

1941réf. List3861N.p.: photograph by Paul Briol 1941. Printed photographic postcard measuring approximately 3 ½ x 5 ½ inches. Image shows the Rt. Rev. Henry Wise Hobson Bishop of Southern Ohio standing beside an automobile pulling the "St. Paul's Wayside Cathedral" with caption printed below: "Trailer Cathedral of the Diocese of Southern Ohio / The Rt. Rev. Henry Wise Hobson Bishop of Southern Ohio is shown about to enter the automobile which will transport St. Paul's Wayside Cathedral over his diocese. A printed postcard showing Henry Wise Hobson with the mobile "Wayside Cathedral" of the Diocese of Southern Ohio. Hobson founded the Wayside Cathedral program in 1941 having a trailer built in Detroit to be pulled behind his automobile for ministry in rural and isolated areas. The Episcopal Church describes the program as a "church-on-wheels" and the caption here names it "St. Paul's Wayside Cathedral." The image is an example of mid-twentieth-century religious mobility: automobile trailer bishop and portable church combined into one publicity image. It also reflects Hobson's broader interest in church extension and communication. As Bishop of Southern Ohio from 1931 to 1959 he helped establish Forward Movement Publications the Episcopal devotional publishing program that became one of the denomination's most durable ventures. A good postcard on Episcopal rural outreach automobile missions and mobile religious architecture in the early 1940s. . photograph by Paul Briol unknown

réf. List3148Vigan The Philippines early 20th century. Photograph measuring 5 x 6 ¾ inches mounted on heavy cardstock. Manuscript caption recto. Wear and some damage to edges; excellent. A photograph of a group of young Filipino men in suits with two white women and a child posing in front of a building. The caption reads “Grove Methodist Dormitory Boys and Missionaries Vigan”. The Methodist Episcopal Church began planning its missionary outreach to the Philippines shortly after the 1898 American victory in the Spanish Civil War when the Philippines became an American colony. The mission center in Vigan the capital of Ilocos Sur on the island of Luzon was opened in 1904 headed by Kansan Berndt O. Peterson.1 Missionaries opened schools—with the aim of both educating and Americanizing their students—and made Vigan the base for evangelizing around the region. According to the UMC’s history of their activities in Asia many Filipinos saw the church’s activities as an extension of American imperialism leading to Nicolás Zamora’s foundation of the Iglesia Evangelica Metodista en las Islas Filipinas in 1909. 1 Wade Crawford Barclay History of Methodist Missions Vol. 4 The Board of Missions and Church Extension of the Methodist Church 1949. unknown
