This was found at a local flea market... when I saw it I couldn't believe it :icon_thumleft:

With all the talk about Knights of Pythias, K of C, and Odd Fellows! Anyone wanna try to ID the group, time, rank, etc

? The stitching and needle work is very detailed, and the cotton weight is high quality! The coat and leggings rock! Thanks for Looking.... HH M

Re: What fraternal group did this uniform belong to

Blue yellow and red are the colors of the KOP , I haven't seen one of these on my recent searchs, any design on the buttons ? what is that brass looking item near the neck ? I think the henderson ames tag dates it to 1893 to 1923

Thanks for the ID. As for the buttons on it, they are quite plain, but they sort of have a glittery look to them, no raised design though. It is in perfect condition, not a rip or tear in it. I had no idea it was so old.... HH M.
