Issue comments:      The P1a was ordered about the time the 310 F2a flap was 
                     ordered. Kaskanampo requested the Greer Emblem Company to 
                     create the Lodge's first neckerchief patch design. The 
                     design was sent to the lodge in 1958 but was not ordered 
                     until 1960.

                     This neckerchief became the first restricted issue of the 
                     lodge and was one per life and was not to be traded.

                     The P1a was sold from 1960 to 1969, however there is a 
                     report that four were found and sold in 1973.

                     The state name ALABAMA was put on the patch because 
                     Kaskanampo was the only Alabama lodge that met for 
                     conclave in Tennessee.
