2010 Insignia – Hidden Finds?

Posted on March 29th, 2011 in Insignia by ramore

Last year the BSA did something smart both from a sales perspective but also from a branding perspective. They noted the 100th anniversary year on the ranks. I was in our Scout office recently and saw that they were out of the 2010 ranks but in looking at the back of the new badges I noted that they had 2010 logo on the back. I don’t know if that is going to continue or if these were made after the order for the 2010 front badges. The merit badge collectors are collecting these backs. It would not surprise me that the insignia collectors will too. But, they could be gone before we know it. If this is an area you collect, pick them up now rather than wait. And just because anyone can buy them, don’t dismiss the collectible interest a few years from now. I remember the time when we never bought extra OA back patches or red and white strips because we could ‘always’ pick them up. Until we couldn’t. Now look at what they bring.
