St. Francis Banner Stand

This banner stand is 78″ tall by 33″ wide and features the image of the St. Francis by Cimabue from the 13th century. Fully retractable and stored in an aluminum case, it takes less than a minute to extend the telescopic pole and unroll the St. Francis by Cimabuebanner. Each unit includes a nylon travel bag for storage and transport, making the banner stand an excellent tool for priests, professors, and missionaries who travel and spread devotion to the saints.
