Last week I was digging in my grandmas yard and found my dads old neckslide. He said it was probably from 56-57.

Dtschuler,
The BSA observed their 46th birthday during Boy Scout Week of Feb. 6-12, 1956. To mark that birthday, the BSA organization launched a four year program with the theme: 'Onward for God and my Country". Your slide is a commemorative product from that era.
