This banner stand is 78" tall by 33" wide and features the image of Our Lady of Grace. Fully retractable and stored in an aluminum case, it takes less than a minute to extend the telescopic pole and unroll the Our Lady of Grace banner. Each unit includes a nylon travel bag for storage and transport, making the banner stand an excellent tool for priests, professors, and missionaries for Mary who travel and give talks promoting devotion to Our Lady.
As one of the most beloved depictions of Mary, Our Lady of Grace appears in sapphire and white robes with red roses at her feet, standing in like manner as Mary in the apparitions to St. Catherine Laboure in 1830 (which brought us the Miraculous Medal). There are 12 stars around Mary's head (as around the woman's head in Revelation) and rays of light pouring from her open hands. In these revelations in Rue du Bac, France, Mary explained, "These rays symbolize the graces I shed upon those who ask for them." From these apparitions, the prayer "O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee" was given. May this image be a reminder for all who see it to call upon God's abundant graces flowing through the hands of Mary - in every trial, joy, and sorrow.
From top-to-bottom, the banner stand measures approximately 78" tall when fully extended. In reality, the banner stand can be extended several inches more, but a total height of 78" is our recommendation for the best combination of visibility and stability.
