I wrote about a belt buckle from Nischa Nimat Lodge about 10 days ago.  It back on eBay at a reduced price.

Clicking on the image will bring you to the auction for the next couple of months.

Will it sell at the lower price?

I’ve only seen a few belt buckles from NY Lodges, which I have begun to document on the blog, does anyone have others to share?

The 1987 Section NE-2A Conclave was hosted by Nischa Nimat Lodge #181.  As was  typical at the time, there were two items issued for the event.  The Lodge #181 totem can be seen at the bottom of the patch.

A pocket patch

And a neckerchief, which consisted of the pocket patch on a white neckerchief with red piping.
