This collection might be the holy grail for someone who collects historical Boy Scouts of America items...

We recently acquired this from an estate sale and want to auction it's entire contents as a collection versus separating.

This collection has very rich provenance. See all pictures for the hand written letter and16 issued merit cards given to the scout. For privacy reasons we've blacked out the address on the BSA hat. The hat itself does not have these markings, as we digitally covered up the name and address. 

The condition of the items are remarkable given the age. Whoever owned these treasures, took great care of them!

Over 150 patches
2 Order of the Arrow Sash
3 Sash with vintage patches
1 hat with name and address written inside
16 dated merit cards
1 authentic typed letter

From what we gather, the origin of this collection is from Provo, Utah. 

Patches are from various years, some duplicates. Can easily identify patches going back to the early 60's, some may even be older.

Without a doubt, this collection is very well intact, authentic, and hard to come by...

Perfect for any avid collector or someone who has the knowledge to resell, as this is not our area of expertise. 

Please feel free to ask any questions or request additional photos. We placed a quarter in some of the photos to show size comparison. 

Good luck with this auction, as it's truly a one of a kind offering and we hope it goes to someone who will appreciate it. 

Will be shipped via USPS with insurance included for the final sale value. 

Thank you for viewing this item.
