Description:

Rudy's Department Store (329 Broadway, Paducah, KY 42001) window display featuring a Masonic Shriner. The symbol on the placard and fez is also a symbol of the societal order. The name "Rizpah" on the fez is the name attributed to the chapter, and refers either to the Middle Eastern word for 'hot stone' or to the biblical character "Rizpah" who was in Saul's concubine.
