Summary[edit]

Description

This is a picture of Napoleon Bonaparte's alleged ceremonial collar, used while serving as Grand Master of the Rosicrucian Order in France. The smaller caption reads: "The original collar worn by Napoleon while Master of a Rosicrucian lodge in Paris. Presented to H. Spencer Lewis by the Paris Grand Lodge of Rose Croix at a special reception, when it was placed on the shoulders of Dr. Lewis and he was given high honors. September 1926."

This image was taken by myself, in the AMORC Rosicrucian Library in San Jose, California. This was one of the many items on display
