NATIONAL SUPPLY SERVICE
Since the early days of the Boy Scouts of America, Neckerchiefs have been used. They were introduced as part of the uniform as identification, as well as the ability to use them for a bandage for First Aid needs. The neckerchief slide has become a way for a Scout to personalize his uniform by using all kinds of decorative slides.

This collection belonged to a life-long Scouter who passed away in 2000. He earned his Eagle award about the age of 17, which would make it around 1959 (ish). He spent his life devoted to Scouting serving as Scoutmaster and at Boy Scout summer camps for over 15 years in positions from counselor to eventually camp director.
He was a ten year member and Vice President of the local Volunteer Fire Co., ten year member of the area Hazardous Materials Response Team and the town Tax Payers Association and was an Eagle Scout with Gold & Silver Palms, one of the highest ranks in Scouting.
A bronze palm represents five additional merit badges, a gold palm 10, and a silver palm 15. 1 gold palm and 1 silver palm = 46 total merit badges (21 required + 25 additional)
I cannot divulge his identity because I don't have the family's permission, nor sufficient background information on him.
Condition: It is still in its original store packaging, in NEW CONDITION. They do show slight age discoloration.
