Hey Are You Actually Interested In The History Of Girl Scout Uniforms Because Man Oh Man Do I Have Some

Hey are you actually interested in the history of Girl Scout uniforms because man oh man do I have some resources for you.

Yes. Yes I am. I dug through three whole boxes of girl scout stuff in my historical society's attic. I'm planning on doing an exhibit of the uniforms they have at some point. I haunt their attic for free.

Seriously though any resources would be helpful!! When looking online I found pretty much just summarized short versions of the history of GS uniforms from 1920-1960, nowhere near enough. However in my historical society's attic they had a book meant for collectors, and it had every badge and uniform and rank, and they were organized precisely by year which was quite a relief when putting together my 1939 GS outfit. But! That's the most I've found. One thing I haven't been able to find out is why some scouts had red kerchiefs, and some scouts had yellow ones. Doesn't seem to be because of rank, is it just troops' choice like the crest???? Idk if anyone can help me answer that one it'd be much appreciated lol

I also used to be a Girl Scout 😃 (Brownie to Senior)

Ahh that's awesome!! I started as a Dasiy (I was a year late though lol) and I stayed all the way up until Senior, my troop had disbanded by then and I was with a Junior/Cadette troop. But I was still a Scout haha. I earned my Bronze award but I never went for Silver or Gold :/

Just wanted to thank y'all so much for appreciating my vintage rogues!! I've been having a long stupid week but it makes me a lot happier knowing people like a project I've put a lot of time and thought into, which I rarely ever do lol. I know it's not a ton of notes but I was still pleasantly surprised..... especially since being a yapper AND a nerd is usually not a recipe for quick n easy posting lmao
