    Description

    1998-1999 Boy Scouts Of America figurine Signed by Jeanie Clinton. “Last Frontier Council, Friends of Scouting, Eagle And Beyond”. Eagle Scout and other emblems are present. 8 1/2” high x 6” wide. Produced by United Design in a heavy resin cast. Exceptional condition. I could not find and damage. The ultimate Boy Scout collectible!
    The company was founded in 1973 by Gary and Jeanie Clinton, who started with a single kiln in a backyard chicken coop. They quickly found their niche in sculpting clay figures, and business grew from neighborhood sales to nationwide distribution.
    At its peak, the company's work force averaged about 750 employees who did everything from designing, manufacturing and painting the products to marketing and shipping. The company expanded sales to Canada, the United Kingdom and China. Clinton's philosophy always had been to keep jobs local. He could make up for cheaper labor costs overseas through innovations in the production process, he said.
    The company was run as a team effort between Gary and Jeanie Clinton for about 25 years. The Clintons sold control of its facilities in 1998 to Charterhouse, a New York private equity investment firm.
    Gary Clinton said he wasn't surprised that Charterhouse didn't share his manufacturing philosophy. Within a few years, the company had moved United Design's entire manufacturing process to China and the Far East. Labor is simply cheaper in China, which translates to a lower dollar cost for most U.S. manufacturing companies, Clinton said.
    It's tough for America to compete in the manufacturing arena, but not impossible, Clinton said. Manufacturing locally gave Clinton more control over the process, and he could easily shift production based on sales trends, he said. Marketing and distribution still were handled through the Noble Oklahoma facility until Charterhouse partnered with the Encore Group to run the warehouse. Encore Group produces some lines similar to those created at United Design and had existing facilities for marketing and distribution.
