Newcastle Odd Fellows Florence Nightingale Statesmen Lodge 66 group photo.: A black and white photograph of a group of seventeen men that are posed in three rows for a formal photograph, wearing suits, mostly with bowties, and ornately embroidered sashes. Some sashes appear to be simply white with embroidery, others lack tasseled fringes, suggesting a hierarchy within this group. The man 3rd from the right in the front row appears to be wearing a shawl version of the sash. On the back wall there are many framed photos, two of them are larger, one is unintelligible, and the other appears to say 'Canadian Order of Foresters'. There are other decorations on the wall, including a large bow covering the top half of one of the framed photos, a clock, and some sort of light up sign in the shape of a star.
