Every good Catholic boy needs to have a cross over his bed…but I could never find the right one….until now!

I don’t have much background about the piece itself…but I am learning a thing or two about “Tramp Art” (http://www.folkartisans.com/sup/tramhist.html)

Oh…and if you are curious about the skull and crossbones at the bottom (I sure was)…I found this explanation on wikipedia:

On some crucifixes a skull and crossbones are shown below the corpus, referring to Golgotha (Calvary), the site at which Jesus was crucified, which the Gospels say means in Hebrew “the place of the skull.”^[6] Medieval tradition held that it was the burial-place of Adam and Eve, and that the cross of Christ was raised directly over Adam’s skull, so many crucifixes manufactured in Catholic countries still show the skull and crossbones below the corpus.
