Lodge 270: Two New Varieties
Brad Hutto has spotted two patches that should probably be listed as new varieties of recent issues.
The first is a variety of the patch previously listed as the lodge’s “A2?”. It appears I did not previously cover this one on this blog. The first variety has a black pocket loop. The second variety appears to be identical except for the red pocket loop. I suggest these should be listed as “A2a?” (black tab) and “A2b?” (red tab).
The second item is a variety of the bottom piece of this lodge’s 2006 NOAC set. On the first patch, previously listed “X15?”, the fleur d’lis and various other elements of the design are rendered in what I call “light orange” (LOR). On the newer variety these elements are rendered in a significantly brighter color that I call “dark yellow” (DYL). According to Brad Hutto, this was caused by the lodge not having enough of the patches for their needs and then reordering from a different company. I have listed these on this site as “X15a?” and “X15b?”.
The listing data for these issues should be as follows:

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| A2a? | BLK | C | M/C | RED | YEL | fdl; Dixie 2007, BLK loop |

| X15b? | GRN | R | M/C | BLK | DYL | fdl; GRN MSU, NOAC 2006; bottom for S30? |
