I actually have a question MC. The most recent edition of Themes for Brotherhood listed white as one of the colors. Was that ever official?

No, it was not. That's an error that creeped in an edition or two ago -- perhaps due to the white pearls on the badge. I understand that it will be corrected in the next addition of Themes.

The original official colors were red and black, adopted in 1898. Gold was added in 1910. As I alluded to in my last post, the 1910 Convention was a busy one in terms of symbols -- it standardized the badge, adopted the arms, adopted what remain the official colors, adopted the design of the shingle and adopted the flag.
