The previous sponsor flap, listed as S57?, has a tan border. This newer piece has a light blue border. He did not know when it was issued. We could only guess its proper place in the ordering of this lodge’s flaps based upon his having the piece for a year or so and the timing of other sponsor issues. The “X6?” was issued in 2005. The “S57?” was issued before the 2006 Conclave flap. So I am placing this piece as “S60?”, just before the 2007 Conclave flap.
