I was very involved with Boy Scouts in the 1960âe(tm)s and early 1970âe(tm)s. My father was involved with the National Staff at the 1969 and 1973 National Jamborees and a Scout Master to the 1975 World Jamboree. We also went to Philmont and spent time in the family camp during my fatherâe(tm)s staff duties. I have a large collection of scout items I will be listing on e-bay during the next several months. Some items are in mint condition and some items are well used or show some age. I prefer payment by Pay Pal. I prefer no returns. I always leave feedback when I have shipped an item and hope to receive feedback upon your receipt. I am honest and expect the same from those I deal with! Please keep in mind that I have been working a lot of hours lately and I am forced now to say I will ship the Saturday after a payment clears. Certainly I will continue to try to uphold my current service of shipping next day after payment but I find it is hard to 100% on this. Good Luck and please respond to communication.

I will be selling a collection of scout stuff so watch for future auctions. I have many items and since I have no children, I will be selling everything.

Offered today is a collection of 1975 World Jamboree items. Items included as listed;

1) My last 14 th World Jamboree uniform shirt. This one has a couple of small stains and is good used condition. This shirt has the rare Jamboree pocket patch that each scout only got three as I recall. Extraâe(tm)s were near impossible to get.

2) My Dover sub-camp Neckerchief, super hard to find --- one per scout--- this was worn during and after the Jamboree and has some staining from my neck. Very good used condition. The Jamboree was broken down into sub-camps but I can not recall how many

3) A good used Jamboree Neckerchief from the USA scouts.

4) A very hard to find Dover sub-camp patchâe"never sewn on a uniform I would bet that one has never been on e-bay

5) The topo map given to me on the international hike. One day we were placed in small groups of 6-8 and sent on a hike ranging from 1-4 in difficulty. My hike was a level 3, level 4 was the most difficult. The scouts on my hike were all from different countries.

6) A 14 th world jamboree neckerchief slide. This is a used item in good shape but like other examples of this type of slide it shows some tarnish. I often wonder if it would polish up but I have never tried.

7) A unusual 14 th World Jamboree belt slide. This is like the skill awards it slips onto a web belt. It is in very good condition.

8) A nice plastic key chain that I never used but is described as in used condition. I think you will agree it only has wear from being in a box of scout items.

9) A copper Jamboree cane badge. These were usually nailed onto a scout cane or walking stick. It is really very nice shape
