Boy Scout Kings Scout FELT No Text Award Badge Troop New Like S102SDNLF1
DESCRIPTION: King’s Scout Award badge, felt without the words Boy Scouts, apparently all badges from this era were hand stitched resulting in subtle differences between each and every badge
-recent sales in the past few years of this badge in USED condition have been quite strong with values from $150 to over $300
Style Variation: Felt version without text, some felt badges had no backings while others had a variety of different backings (the felt variation is thought to have been introduced in 1910 and used into the 1920’s)
Size: 1 3/8 inches or 35 mm in diameter (it seems that the diameters of the felt style badge varied without any consistent size)
CONDITION: New Like (has some fading on the front) (as noted below, this 100+ year old badge was recently found in a box lot from an abandoned storage locker, no stitch marks or glue residue that are typically present on badges from this era, the colour and images on this badge remain very strong and vibrant, see images for greater detail)
Going For*: $239.99
FREE SHIPPING Yes, there will be no extra shipping expense added at checkout on this item and on many of our eBay STORE listings. I can still arrange to have your package sent to you by a trackable service at your request.
Once in a Lifetime FIND: Background Story
This badge was recently found in a box lot of other pre-1925 Boy Scout items. The box included some felt no words King’s Scout badges, some styles of felt no words proficiency badges, some fabric rank and metal Patrol Leader badges too. In total over 175 items.
It is my understanding that paperwork for the King’s Scout award and all proficiency badges would be submitted by mail to a Regional or Provincial Scout office. After review, the badge would then be mailed back for presentation to the youth. I tried to get some background information on the source of this AMAZING find.
The Auctioneer said that he was told it came from an abandoned storage locker and had no other details about the original owner of this box lot. (An image of this box lot is shown in this listing.)
This box lot contained a mix relative common items but also some much rarer badge varieties I have never owned. Better still, the majority of the items were indeed NEW OLD STOCK meaning no wear and tear, fading, stitch marks or glue reside that is often present on badges from this era. A few badges had moth damage to the felt fabric or backing but even those badges were great to find.
Please do check our other listings if you are interested in items from this, what I am calling a once in a lifetime find.
