Silver COLLINS
LONDON GROUP Scout Master Green White Bristles
STETSON Hat PLUME Hackle Brush Role
Identification S550A PLM4
DESCRIPTION: Silver COLLINS
LONDON Boy Scout Troop Group Scout
Master Stetson
(Lemon) Hat Plume, Green Bristles, cotter pin attachment holder,
with cotter pin
-this plume features white bristles in
the center and flanked by green bristles on either side, it is my understanding
that this plume was for the Group Scout Master, if anyone knows for sure
please message me
-features BE PREPARED embossed
in the banner below the Fleur des Lis
-marked on the reverse COLLINS
LONDON SILVER RD 535292
-there is a patina on the plume holder that
has aged over time
-many names were used to describe the hat badge over the
years including BRUSHES, HACKLES and PLUMES, the latter perhaps
the most commonly known or used
-leaders, and other adults playing different roles within
the Boy Scout organization, used the hat plume as a means of
quickly identifying their role or position, the GREEN plume was main leader with the Troop
or Pack and the RED plume was for the
assistant leaders
-similarly, a District Scout Leader would have a
plume with WHITE bristles, the District Commissioners’ plume
would have PURPLE bristles & so
on.
-the plume holder design and text also varied from one
section on to another, the Troop level had the classic Fleur de Lis
design (BE PREPARED), the Wolf Cub design featured the Wolf (DO
YOUR BEST or BOY SCOUTS) and Rovers also used the fleur de lis design but
with RS on it (SERVICE, BE PREPARED or BOY SCOUTS),
-additionally, to the best of my knowledge the Wolf
Cub plume was only used in the Canadian Scouting program, typically an
enamel hat badge with cotter pins was used at Pack in most Commonwealth
countries and even Canada for many years
-the variations are multiplied even further as some designs
had NO stars in the Fleur de Lis, were produced in sterling, EPNS or
other metals, had a variety of manufacturer marks on the reverse, had a variety
of plume bristles from horse to nylon or had one of a multitude of holder
designs
-plumes were attached to the hat with a cotter pin or some
later styles had a clip design
