Translated Title

Tender farewell of the faithful to the Holy Virgin of Guadalupe, Patroness of the Mexican Republic

Description

This broadside has two pages printed on the front and back, so that when folded there are four pages of text. It is printed on dark orange paper. On what would be the cover there is an engraving of Our Lady of Guadalupe flanked by cherubs on either side. Along what would be the inner fold are illustrations of the front and back of the Guadalupe medallion, and the text on the top half of the back cover is framed by figures in religious garb carrying oil lamps.

The text is comprised of prayers for Our Lady of Guadalupe from the perspective of a pilgrim to the shrine, naming specific regions of Mexico where pilgrims may have traveled from. The text also highlights the indulgence granted to those wearing the medal of Guadalupe and relates the story of the coronation of the Virgin of Guadalupe and designation of the Basilica of the Virgin of Guadalupe in 1904 by decree of Pope Pius X. Possibly a souvenir from the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe.
