The emblem of St James Church is the shell
Knights of the Order of Saint James had been formed to protect travellers on the pilgrimage to the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in Northern Spain. The Benedictines built monasteries and hostels to host the pilgrims along the main pilgrim routes.
Europe’s first tourist industry was from the pilgrim routes and many businesses were created to serve the pilgrims. The pilgrims wore shells so that others would know they were pilgrims, and the hostels and other places that served the pilgrims displayed shells to attract the pilgrims. The card below was what Pilgrims got on their journey.

When I saw "shell" I immediately thought of this and that Epstein's island is "Little" St. James
