Lion key

[Samuel23]

Found this cool old key yesterday. Along with three more boy scout neckerchief slides. Also a very toasted case knife

I have a lion key just like this one. I found it in an old desk I got a a yard sale. Wonder how old they are.

 

[Msbeepbeep]

Nice! I haven't seen a key like that!

 

[jewelerguy]

the key is from a Master brand padlock. I found a forum discussion that says the walking lion was registered as their trademark in 1931 and used until the mid-70's

Man scouts must hate them things.. I have found countless slides too.. Guess there is no badge for "Keeping your Slide". ha

There are actually a few different styles for the Boy Scouts slides. I found a couple different ones near each other in a park once.

 

[Samuel23]

Yeah I've found a few of them so far, three in one day last week. I just wonder how old some of them are or if they use the same style still. I don't know much about em

Samuel23: you have 3 Boy Scout slides, and 2 Cub Scout ones - Wolf, and Webelos. Cub Scouting used to have Lion as a level, but it is now Tiger, Wolf, Bear & Webelos. Not sure if the Lion had a slide. There are also bolo slides, and special event slides. Our BSA troop chooses not to wear neckerchiefs, but when my sons were in Cubs, I had to safety pin them onto the neckerchiefs to keep them on!
