Seth is a member of over a dozen fraternal groups and has spent countless hours researching the fraternal use of fezzes. Fezzes worn as part of military uniforms are not of primary interest.
Right now, the collection is restricted to fraternal and social groups only. As new pieces are added, the appropriate exhibits will be updated. The goal of this website is to document pieces in Seth’s collection. Moors after studying particular sciences, whether.

The fez was and is worn by dark skinned Asiatics in what today they call North Africa, from the city of Fez. He began compiling the information he found in a word document in hopes that it would help with his collection.

Having been admitted, he purchased his second fez, embroidered with the number “45,” denoting his membership in that organization. This permafelt fez is bright red with the traditional gold tassel on top. Seth continued to research fezzes, eventually finding the fine folks over at the Order of the Fez (which is now sadly defunct.) His first purchase was a simple black felt fez which he wore to the pub on Halloween of 2009. The tassel is pinned down in such a way that it naturally falls in front of the seam, thereby hiding it. The fez was actually made illegal in the Turkish empire and other middle eastern countries in the beginning of the 1900s.

In the fall of 2009, Seth (the owner of the collection) stumbled upon Fez-o-Rama while looking for something fun to wear to a weekly trivia night at the local pub. The Virtual Museum of Fezology started as a simple hobby.
