Today I had the pleasure of interacting by email with Jay Rogers, a man knowledgeable about girl scout and boy scout history.  Our interaction began with a question about something I was offering on eBay.  In the email he provided me with a link to what he is working on, and the link lead to a publication that looked interesting enough to mention here.

I know from past experience selling collectibles that there are many who collect, or enjoy items related to Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts of America.  If you, the reader, are one of these people, then you will want to stop over and take a look at the 2nd edition of “Levy’s Boy and Girl Scout Cachet Covers of the United States“.

While the book focuses primarily on Cachet Covers, a phrase at the site states that in “…addition to everything else, the Catalog is actually a grass roots history of USA Scouting. The reader can find out what Scouts and Troops themselves were doing and really interested in from 1930 through 1960. For the Scouting enthusiast, even if he or she doesn’t collect US cachet covers, the Catalog will still be a most interesting read.” You can view sample pages of the publication and see the covers when you visit, so stop by!
