Time Machine – What Patch Trading Looked Like Before Covid
This was too good not to share. Among the very first efforts I made into blogging and making videos was a now retired website called www.NOAC2009.com. For that event I made videos at the Pre-NOAC TOR and of patch trading during the event. It was a feeding frenzy as it often is after the show. Usually around 10 PM hundreds of patch collectors show up in the assigned trading hall. It might be a long time before we see this kinda of trading again so I wanted to share these two videos (the first is less than 25 seconds long) that show the action at the 2009 NOAC.
With the 2020 NOAC cancelled it might be a few years before we can all look forward to this type of trading action again! While filming I did catch one of my buddies Darrin Thomas making a deal and wanted to share this picture from the video.

I started collecting Boy Scout memorabilia when I was inducted into Santee Lodge 116, Order of the Arrow at Camp Coker in the summer of 1986. All the guys of ISWA chapter in Elk campsite seemed to be trading and since my dad sent me to camp with a small bag of patches, I jumped in and never looked back....
