Californian Uniform??
« on: Wednesday 02 January 13 00:35 GMT (UK) »
Hi All,
 This photo was taken by C Sutterley  (Clement) a travelling photgrapher in California, Have not included the back as the photo has been stuck to another surface at some time.Hoping some one may be able to tell me about this uniform. At a guess I thought it might be some type of Lodge?
With Thanks and New Year Greetings  to my fellow rootschatters, Kerri  :)
