None of the regular issues from Shu Shu Gah are extremely difficult to obtain.\u00c2\u00a0 Tracking down a complete collection of flaps is certainly achievable.<\/p>\n

Amongst the more modern issues, the toughest is\u00c2\u00a0the delegate issue from the 1992 NOAC, the S20.\u00c2\u00a0 Since 1990, Shu Shu Gah Lodge has issued a delegate patch to those who attended NOAC as\u00c2\u00a0 part of the lodge contingent or on staff.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 Typically\u00c2\u00a03 delegate flaps or sets where given to each person.<\/p>\n

In 1992, \u00c2\u00a0the patches were ordered prior to the total number of delegates being finalized.\u00c2\u00a0 A slighter larger than anticpated contingent meant there were only 2 patches\u00c2\u00a0available per delegate. \u00c2\u00a0My undertanding is that only\u00c2\u00a050 were ordered.\u00c2\u00a0 The number was reduced when the lodge advisors car was broken into and his luggage stolen on the night before he was leaving for NOAC.\u00c2\u00a0 This resulted in 8-10 patches being lost (as he had the delegate patches for himself and several staff members he was meeting at NOAC).<\/p>\n

Those shorted on the flap had to trade for them from within the contingent, leaving only around\u00c2\u00a040 in existance for a 25 person contingent.<\/p>\n

\u00c2\u00a0\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The S20 Delegate flap differs from the regular NOAC Flap (S19) only in the black arrow.\u00c2\u00a0 The regular S19 has a red arrow.\u00c2\u00a0 Care should be taken in trading for this patch, as some examples have surface where the red arrow has been colored black with a marker or dye.<\/p>\n

It was beautiful and simple, as truly great swindles are. <\/dt>\n
