Quite a number of Masonic writers have written about Masonic certificates.
Much of this material relates to certificates issued by the Grand Lodge of England.
The only materials that I have found relating to the Grand Lodge of New Zealand are some papers on the design of the Master Masons’ certificate.
Many people are not aware of the wide variety and types of certificates, patents, charters and other material issued by and in the name of the Grand Lodge of New Zealand.
This paper will look at the various certificates, patents, warrants and charters issued by the Grand Lodge of New Zealand and comment on both the reason for their issue and their format.
