Of little interest philatelically, but when I saw it couldn't pass it up. The red and green printing make for wonderful contrast and the embossed cancel (seal) is just absolutely hammered.

I've also included a copy of the text printed on the back of the document.

I know nothing about this kind of material, but it sure is beautiful to look at!

This is a very cool document.. first one I have ever seen. I have read about them before.
This is/was an early membership document into the Masonic Relief Society. This is not practiced any longer as a part of members dues goes to these kind of programs.

Rev.. I have and still collect Masonic documents. More for the Masonic history then for the stamps.

That's pretty cool. But George doesn't look too pleased about having his head punched.
