History

About 1968, a reproduction of the solid issue was made by a member of Kawida Lodge. This flap was believed to be a real lodge issue by many collectors until the mid- 1970's, when this information surfaced. Because of the scarcity of the 2 real lodge issues, many had this reproduction in their numbered collection, in fact Bill Price's OA Illustrated Lodge Patch Handbook had this patch pictured instead of a real issue. It is said that about 200 were made, and the only significant difference from the S1 is this flap has a rolled edge
