I scoured eBay and found one in mint condition—it even came in the original box and “cardinal red” pouch. For the price of $5.95 Catholic readers of the Messenger could fill out a little slip of paper with their address and enclose a check, cash, or money order (or they could be billed later) to mail-order this rosary. I paid many times that price. This object traveled in different mediums: imported from Rome and marketed in print advertisements, mailed to the home of a buyer, somehow recirculated to the eBay seller, presented in the eBay search, and (with sizable financial investment) delivered to my home. It was the first of many I would come to collect as I created my own rosary archive. This object is a lens for broader thinking about the sensory history of the rosary and the affordances of eBay for understanding Catholic commodities and their reinventions.
