A pocket-sized decoratively embossed leather bound book. There is gold-embossed print on the cover that reads "Souvenir de Lourdes". There is what appears to be wood-carved stamped art opposite the title page. This art is protected by a sheet of vellum between the two pages. The art is of a man and woman and a boy.

The binding looks possibly hand-stitched with thread. in French
