    billyd3us Thanks All my Friends

    Picked this up today, anyone know what Fraternity this was from ?
    If any Fraternity at all, or is it something else ?
    I know Wendell Fraternal Supplies started in the late 1800's, just want to know what Fraternal group if any this is from .

    Thank You

    The Know Nothings? Or the WTF fraternity?

    Or the 'life is a mystery but gets a three star rating' fraternity.
    It is certainly a mystery banner.

    If the company is still in business, maybe they can tell you who it was made for.

    The company has apparently been in business since 1882, and has made a lot of custom items besides fraternal things...
    See http://www.wendellsinc.com/

    The logo and location seem correct.
