Looking for - NJ77 Third Century Strip

Recommended Posts

I am looking to obtain a few of the "Third Century USA" strips that accompany the 1977 National Jamboree patch. I have enough of the actual NJ patches, but only one of the strips.

The strip was earned by completing a series of tasks at the Jamboree, and it is worn immediately below (and touching) the NJ patch. It continues the diagonal color strips of red, white, and blue that are predominant on the NJ patch. Does anyone kniow where I can get copies of these? I have looked on eBay, but the few I have found over the last year have been grouped with other patches. When mesaaging the sellers and ultimate buyers none wanted to break the group up. Thanks, Sean

You can try any of the major patch dealers/traders. Here are four I have used in the past and been very satisfied with prices and service:

 

 

The Heart O' Texas trader

Brush Creek Trading:

Sometimes they have them, sometimes not. I have only the one I earned as well, for the wide game event. I even have the orange "H" that was issued to me that morning. The story of how I ended up earning the award is my favorite anecdote from that long, rainy week in August 1977.
