By Robert Wilson - Posted on 13 February 2010

Update:Official Requirements are now available from the National web site: http://www.scouting.org/scoutsource/BoyScouts/AdvancementandAwards/historical_mb_program.aspx

From scoutstuff.org and Scouting Magazine -

These four limited-edition, vintage-design Merit Badges give Boy Scouts a hands-on opportunity to experience an exciting part of BSA® history. To celebrate Scouting’s 100 years in the U.S., badges are an exclusive offering, available during 2010 only.

Merit Badges feature original designs and requirements from the early years of scouting. Modified for safety, the requirements may be found online at www.scouting.org/100years (no Merit Badge Pamphlets will be printed).

Completion of requirements must take place between January 1 and December 31, 2010. All Merit Badges are restricted.
