The lucky thirteenth slide in the series on NY OA Neckerchief slides and bolos is also from Buckskin Lodge #412. You can find previous entries by clicking on the neckerchief slide category in the left sidebar.
This slide may be homemade. Has anyone else seen one? It is made of plaster with a wire embedded in the back for the slide. The coloring appears to be paint.
The design is from the L1 of the Lodge, the Buckskin Tab. Image courtesy of The Internet Guide for OA Images .

“Government has only two ways of getting money other than raising taxes. It can go into the money market and borrow, competing with its own citizens and driving up interest rates, which it has done, or it can print money, and it’s done that. Both methods are inflationary.” –Ronald Reagan
The black and white plaster Buckskin Lodge OA slide is genuine; the ones i’ve see have a plastic ring partially embedded into the back so it can slide over a rolled neckerchief. I’ve never seen the red one.
I had one of white ones, which i have just sent off to a fellow camp counselor at Camp Wauwepex from the 60s-70s, who lost his. I am interested in buying another one if you know of any for sale.
