EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing historical artifact is a Masonic Patriotic card, dating back to the 1910s, in support of Labour in the United States. The image on the card showcases a powerful and poignant representation of the labor movement and the connection between the Masonic fraternity and the American working class. The central figure in the print is a masonic laborer, clad in workman's attire and wielding a sledgehammer, standing atop a factory cog wheel. The cog wheel, a symbol of industry and industrial progress, is surrounded by various other industrial elements such as scaffolding, smoke, and a chimney. The masonic square and compasses emblem is prominently displayed on the laborer's apron, underscoring the fraternal bond between the workers and the Masonic order. The title "Support Labour" is inscribed at the top of the card, with the words "United States of America" and "Labour" appearing below. This card serves as a testament to the solidarity between the labor movement and the Masonic fraternity during a time of significant industrial growth and social change in American history. The Masonic Patriotic card in support of Labour is an evocative reminder of the shared values and aspirations of the working class and the Masonic order during the early 20th century. It is a powerful symbol of the unity and determination of the labor movement, and the enduring influence of the Masonic tradition on American culture and society.
