was able to purchase the collection of a Scout who attended the 1985 National Scout Jamboree at Ft. AP Hill VA. In a previous deal he sold me his Apple Computer laptop bag. This time he had all of his patches he traded for at the Jamboree and more. One of the key items was a 1935 National Scout Jamboree patch that he had always assumed was legit. I spend a good bit of time in the video debating it and I’d love to hear in the comments what you think?!
The homemade neckerchief slides are a real throwback item. Back in the day people would make things to take to the Jamboree to trade instead of all these crazy patch sets we have today. But trade he did at the Jambo and I am able to show his notebook full of patches that he brought back.
