Masonic sword? More pics in the comments

Any help

 

Where did you find it? Know anything of it's history? Dimensions/size? pictures of the whole thing? more pictures of the details?

 

I cant post more pics because the file size is to large

 

This site seems to work okay for resizing images:

I figured it out lol

 

Bought it at an auction for $8.00 US. That's all the information I have.

 

36 inches long. The guard is 5.5 inches, and the blade is 28 inches long.

 

Thanks! Unfortunately I know very little about Masonic items but others who do will be along

 

If you goto Edit, More Options, check box Full Size All Images, Save Changes, we can see much better.

 

Thank you for the help with the pic resizing and everything else.

 

The owner of your sword was a member of the Odd Fellows. The 3 links shown in one of your detail pics is the giveaway.

 

This sold listing from 2017 still has a decent number of pictures which you can compare to the decoration on your sword.

When it comes to Ohio products I do know enough to get me in trouble. The M.C. Lilley & co. was started in the late 1860's and lasted till around the 1930's - and they did make Masonic items - that's all I got!

 

I believe the Odd Fellows are a fraternal order, but are not Masonic, so a search for fraternal sword or Odd Fellows sword would give more results than a search for Masonic sword.

 

Thank you.
