PHOTO c1917 Early histories of the Boy Scouts of America (BSA) suggest that the WW1 U.S. Army style military-style uniform was the work of the badges-and-awards committee. But the prime mover was probably Sigmund Eisner, of Red Bank, N.J., whose company manufactured uniforms for several of the world’s armies and who became the BSA’s official uniform and equipment supplier. The Scout uniform was so similar to the U.S. Army’s that during the mobilization for World War I, special steps were taken to distinguish it from its counterpart worn by “doughboys,” as U.S. soldiers were called. DIMENSIONS OF OUTER MOUNT : 5 5/8” x 8 7/8” CONDITION EXTREMELY FINE THROUGHOUT WITH SOME LIGHT HANDLING FROM ITS 107 + YEARS . SHARP FOCUS AND VERY GOOD CONTRAST.
