Boy Scout Memorabilia - 100 years of Scouting



I was looking at some Boy Scout items that my father and brother had stuffed in a box and that had been put away and forgotten about.

Inside was an envelope from "Scout Memorabilia" newsletter with an insert freebie.

The free item was a wonderful 32 page Graphic Novel(Book as they call it) about the life of Lord Robert Baden-Powell, the founder of the Scouting Movement. You will find exciting, fantastic adventures as you follow Baden-Powell into action in India and Africa. See him outwit the fierce Afghans along the Northwest frontier of India! Be with him in Zululand, on the Gold Coast, in Southern Rhodesia and in the Boer War!


I found this Graphic Novel really fascinating and the Art Work great.

We decided to put it on eBay so it wouldn't just rot in the closet so if you are interested in it GO HERE.

Hope you find it as interesting as I did.

I also found a First Edition, 1911, Boy Scout Handbook, it is almost 100 years old. go here
