Scout Patch Collectors

Sunday Scouting Hot Finds Newsletter October 20, 2019

For the first time in probably 20 years I’ve been asked to be the speaker at a Scout dinner. This is a small group in Columbia but it’s got me thinking about how I can bring in Scouting memorabilia to help illustrate the story. I think when you look at insignia, merit badges and Eagle medals that really tells a story that any Scouter would connect to.

Sometimes as a collector you need a little incentive to get your stuff organized. I’ve got probably 50 Eagle medals from various collection purchases. Almost none of them are labeled or organized into a display. I’ve got about a month to get this together along with a neat idea I have for a merit badge display. If anybody has pictures send them to me.

I’m getting this issue out a little late in the day. As I’m finishing this issue Patrick is going through his first day of God and Family. He earned the earliest version when he was a Wolf so if we keep it going he can have the chance to get all four versions.

I have .99 cent auctions ending in less than 2 hours on eBay. This is an effort to start pairing down items that have not sold in a few years rather than paying the fee every month.

Tomorrow if all goes well I’ll post a video on Facebook about a new product I’ll be offering on BestHobbyPages.com. It will be in the Tuesday issue as well!
