Thread Heads Episode #6: Boy Scout Patrol Medallions With Todd Kelly
When Todd Kelly was working as a professional Scout in Georgia he ran into an opportunity he could not pass up. The BSA had switched the style of it’s patrol medallions from the old red & black designs to full color. Todd was able to go in and get bags of the discontinued designs from distributor stores such as Belks.
In this video Todd shares the history of the Boy Scout patrol medallions and explains why it’s such an easy collection to start. Although the earliest specimens are nearly impossible to find you can put together a really nice collection without breaking the bank.
