John Pannell’s oaimages, Website, OAI, White Panther Lodge 345, F-3. THE 345 WHITE PANTHER LODGE F-2 FLAP DIFFERS FROM THE 345 F-1 WHITE PANTHER IN THAT IT HAS THE RED EYE ON THE PANTHER, AND NO BEADING ON THE EDGE OF THE PANTHER, WHERE THE FIRST FLAP, FF, DOES. THE WHITE PANTHER LODGE 345 F-3 LOOKS LIKE A 345 KOI FLAP ISSUE WITH THE BLACK TWILL BACKGROUND, BKGD. AND NO LODGE NAME.
