Comment on 1957 Area 3C Pow Wow by Bruce Shelley

Bruce Shelley — Mon, 15 Mar 2010 12:25:40 +0000

I bought some slides from Ed in the early 1960s and when I got back into collecting I picked up a few more here and there. I continue to add to my collection via eBay and TORs. I have one of his catalogs and copies of at least one other. He had well over 100 designs. I don’t always know if a slide I have was carved by him or by someone else using his blanks and instructions. I have photos of me as a Scout wearing his slides. I know there are many great carvers but my connection to him makes his stand out for me. I have seen that 1957 3C slide sell for around $700, I believe, by the way. Can’t be many slides that have reached that valuation. Bruce Shelley

I have a small clip from the Paris Hilton movie on my blog. To bad it got leeched onto the net for everyone to watch. She did not want it to be released as it was her ex Rick Salomon that lost it.

I agree with you actually, I believe! May this be feasible to be able to have your blog post translated in Chinese? English is actually my own second language.

Comment on Lodge 270: 1973 Union Chapter Patch by Matthew Delk

This is NOT a lodge 270 peice. This IS a lodge 188 peice from Union County, NC. The districts in Central NC Council are named and divided by County, ie Concord district, Union District, Stanley District, Anson District, Montgomery District, Richmond District, etc. There was a tradition of the OA helping at district camporees, and “WWW” or “OA” or something like that was added to many district patches in the 70’s and 80’s. I have a handful from there, and by far, the best one is a district camporee from Concord district that has a design of an OA dancer, has a vigil sash design, and was made in memory of Norman Alston after he passed away. When I am able to, I will scan them so that they can be added to the 188 page. If you don’t believe me and still believe that this patch is from 270, then I have some rare and expensive Union patches to sell to you out of my NC Council/District collection!

The only district camporee patches from SC that incorporated OA references in the design were from AKK 185, one from lodge 236, one from 119, and one from lodge 221. This is off the “top of my head” and is based off of my SC Council/District collection, so please don’t be offended if I left someone out!

The earliest 270 chapter peice that I know of was the York Chapter patch, which was produced late 70’s early 80’s time frame. It is difficult to aquire in it’s own right.

Thanks, Matthew Delk
