How to Catalogue a “Whatzit”
Recently someone emailed me with a question about a patch he could not readily catalog. To him it was a “whatzit?” There were several clues on the patch by which I was readily able to tell him what lodge and issue it was. I explained to him what I did and want to share it here, too. The patch in question is pictured to the left.
The email correspondent thought it was possibly from lodge 75. But that number has been Kiskakon lodge since 1935 and never associated with Ocean County Council.
Let’s look at the evidence here and properly catalogue this item.
