Paph Mooreheart most likely, pretty typical "complex" Paph breeding, probably green and white dorsal with spotted maroon and green petals. Mooreheart (Greatheart x Farmoore) was registered by Rod McLellen Company in 1957, and got a few /AOS and /CSA awards in 1959-1969, but no AM awards apparently. Rodco is a reference to Rod McLellan Company, but I can't find any reference to a 'Rodco' cultivar. Also no idea what AGS is, but possibly "A" Garden Society.

Thank you so much, it was enough to go on. Google turned up Paph Mooreheart 'Rodco' HCC/AOS, which was probably what the tag was supposed to say (har har for handwritten tags). And sorry for these short posts, im still on mobile device, ack!

Don't bother with google, it's not always a reliable source of information on orchid names. Look it up in the RHS database.
