A hanging scroll style Catholic Ladder based on the designs of Francis Norbert Blanchet copyrighted in 1859. The ladder is written in English and is titled, "A Catholic Ladder or a Chronological and Historical Chart of the Christian Religion and Doctrine." A handwritten note on the back of the ladder reads, "Chronological Chart of Christian Religion by Rev. F. N. Blanchett." The document is a printed lithograph with illustrations and descriptions of biblical scenes used by Blanchet and other missionaries as an instructional tool for Christian evangelization to Native American and French métis communities.
