The badge is a beautifully enameled Knight's Cross and was worn at the 24th Triennial Conclave in September 1919 at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. This badge was recently purchased from a man who was breaking up his Lowell collection, and came to us along with a Lowell Knights' Templar badge (please see link at bottom of page for more information - sold separately).
