1960s Boy Scout Vintage Patch 1969 Indiana, USA A vintage patch of high historical value, issued by the Boy Scouts of America (BSA) in 1969. This patch is a commemorative item from a large-scale camping event held in 1969 by the "Kikthawenund Council" of Indiana, USA, with a theme of the American West. The name "Kikthawenund" comes from the name of a great chief of the Delaware tribe, who had ties to this land. The design theme is the "Lewis and Clark Expedition," which crossed the North American continent in the early 19th century. An elk (moose) symbolizing the untamed wilderness, majestic mountain ranges, and rivers that were the paths of pioneers are depicted with thick, vivid embroidery characteristic of the 1960s. This is a highly narrative piece that evokes the revival of the "frontier spirit" in America at the time. #1960s #BoyScouts #VintagePatch #MadeInUSA #USAVintage #Military #AmericasCasual #VintageClothingCustom #EmbroideryPatch #1969 #Indiana #Outdoor #NativeAmerican #LewisAndClark #CampingGear
