    -Read More to find out more about what should have been the "Great Masonic, What To Do During the Poop Companion".
    -It can still be your Great Vintage Poop Companion before the word gets out! (I've obtained a few Very Good Condition copies of this book that I will list as they sell).
    This book contains a wealth great content, rare photos, poems,  articles, and advertisements. I can understand why this antique book typically sells under   (If you start from the front page you'll find yourself thumbing through quite a few pages of dry formal Grand Lodge Biography and Charity Information before being pleasantly surprised). If you love history, Masonic literature, and the old school manly fraternal stuff you will appreciate this book. The New York brethren who put this program/literary/historical compilation together put forth a dedicated effort. Notable early 20th Century American Masonic Author / Historian Ossian Lang served as The Grand Lodge of New York's official historian when this publication was produced. Roughly 30% relates to the Purpose of the Masonic Exposition and Celebration of the Hospital Charity and the rest is great content in a (digest or magazine) miscellaneous content format. This event was akin to a Masonic Worlds Fair (much like Masonic Week in DC). The book as a whole provides more colorful insight as to what Masonic culture was like during the Roaring 20's and helps to cultivate an understanding of the perception and expectations of Masonry that led to the massive membership increase following WW2.
