I am updating my TOR calendar for the upcoming Friday newsletter. I've heard from a few folks but if you know I don't have your flyer included please send me an email so I can help spread the word. I'll be missing a good show coming up in Winston-Salem, NC myself but there are times when you just can't make your own schedule and I'm caught in that right now.
Vintage Boy Scout Memorabilia Up First
The marquee item in today's issue has got to be the 1920 BSA medal from the first World Jamboree. As I'm publishing this issue it has over thirty bids and I can see where this might the type of item that someone with deep pockets might just blow up the auction at the close. Put that one on your watch list!
This week I'm expecting to get in two portfolios that I found discounted on Amazon. I'm going to use them to mount my OA flap collection figuring that closing out with the end of 2015 is a nice stopping point. I will figure out my needs list here in the next few weeks as I go through that project.
I have heard that the TOR at Camp Carpenter in New Hampshire is a really nice show. One day I'd like to make it up as I've never visited that part of the country. There are a bunch of nice old listings from that camp in today's issue.
My eBay store is sitting at 8,643 items as I got to press today. I'm going to do a bunch of listing today and hopefully get that number above 9,000 by the end of the week and then back to 10k by the end of the year.
I'll be listing dozens of 2015 NOAC issues today so if you are still hunting those check my eBay store that is linked in at www.Patchblanket.com. Thanks!
