Souvenir Friday- Disneyland Masonic Club Badge

Here is an esoteric employee piece, a name badge for the Disneyland Masonic Club. Back in the late 1950s, there were many clubs and organizations for the employees of Disneyland. They were all organized by the Disneyland Recreation Club. The DRC published the employee magazine The Disneylander and featured many of these clubs. The clubs included bowling, basketball and softball teams, shooting club, skiing club, knitting club and the Masonic club. There was also organized trips that an employee could take. I like the use of the Disneyland blue and yellow and the traditional Disneyland logo.

Hooray, Souvenir Friday is back!

"Flemon", that's an interesting name...I'm sure the Mason's had secret meetings in a chamber hidden beneath the Matterhorn.

Does anyone have any idea who could have this name tag? That man is my late grandfather. He died when I was 3, and I have been finding more about him as I grow in age along with Masonic connections in our family. I would love to obtain this and keep it in our family. Please reply if you have any clue. I have sufficient evidence to prove my statement and I will keep this page marked in my favorites and check in since there is no notification system. Thank you.
