War Service Boy Scouts & Guides collection
Thought I would share my small collection
Of these, I am hoping that some of you may have some I am missing which you may be willing to part with , if so kindly drop me a pm. If not I hope you will just enjoy seeing those items I presently have. Notable are there The Boys life brigade war service badge and the Scouts Cycle despatch Corps shield. Enjoy Steve Last edited by arrestingu; 29-06-23 at 11:18 AM. |

Wonderful collection - as a long term Scout Insignia collector I can appreciate how much effort it has taken to accumulate and source these - well done.

Hi Steve,
That is an excellent collection I'd love to own. Up until very recently I was a scout leader in Tynemouth District and still have strong ties to my group. I don't know if you are aware but your cycle dispatch corps shield has the Tynemouth coat of arms on it. It shows a fisherman and a miner with 3 crowns representing the 3 Northumbrian kings buried in Tynemouth priory. The latin motto translates as harvest from / of the deep. I have never heard of the scout cycle dispatch corps before so I feel some research coming on. Michael |

Steve, What a truly awesome little collection. I was especially interested to see that there were different sizes of the red and yellow NS Title as I have that on my want list at some point.
Very, very nice collection and as has already been said, I am sure it has taken some real searching to come up with it! Terry |
