Actually, that’d be a really sad day if a dog ate one of our fezzes! Thankfully, that hasn’t happened. Rather, the Curator has been busy visiting his family and tracking down new fezzes! Since it’s been a while since our last update, we decided that it would be a good time for a Double Fez day – meaning we’ve updated the Museum with four new exhibits (instead of our regular update, which is usually two.)

First, we’ve added three fezzes to the IBPOEW page. These fezzes all belonged to one person and give a great example of how a man joined a fraternal body and then chose to give it lots of time and effort, advancing in rank and prestige as he did.

Second, we added a fez to the AMOS page. This fez is the most modern of the examples and does a great job of showing what the regalia of today looks like amongst the Samaritans.

We hope you enjoy these updates. Right now the Museum has at least 8 more fezzes that haven’t been posted to this site, 3 of which are from organizations not yet represented with exhibits! Keep checking back for the updates!

Today we have updated the Museum with our newest exhibit. It depicts a fez from the Patriot Order Sons of America, a fraternal group dedicated to American ideals. Sadly, the group is in full decline today, but it is still operational in a few states, with Pennsylvania being the strongest. This fez was a very unique find, so check it out!

Or in this case, the Past Mighty Chosen One! Today, we’ve updated our display on the Daughters of Mokanna by adding two more examples of fezzes from this group – a basic members fez and another Past Mighty Chosen One’s fez. Enjoy!

Good day!

As you can see, we’ve undertaken a complete redesign of the Museum of Fezology. We decided to transfer the entire Museum over to WordPress to better facilitate updates and changes. We hope you like the results!

While doing the transfer, we managed to add some pieces to the collection. First, stop on over to the Ubar Grotto page to read about some fezzes that are unique to this group and afterwards take a take a dive over to the Ladies of the Orient page where we detail a fez that is believed to have denoted the rank of the Supreme Degree!

As always, if you have questions, comments, or would like more info on your fez, drop us a line on the Contact page!
