EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and heartwarming print captures the essence of the Boy Scouts' 6th Law: "A Scout is a Friend to Animals". Created in 1929 by an English School artist, this colour lithograph showcases the ideals and values that the scouting movement instills in young individuals. The image, part of a series of cigarette cards produced by Ogdens, depicts a cheerful boy scout with a bucket of water, ready to help his four-legged friend – a pony trapped in a fence. The advertisement promotes trust, loyalty, and courtesy as essential qualities for scouts to embody. In this vintage card, we witness not only acts of kindness but also the importance of fulfilling one's duties towards animals and fellow beings. The smiling face of the scout reflects his genuine commitment to making good turns and doing deeds that benefit others. With its vivid colors and nostalgic charm, this artwork serves as both an inspiration for current scouts and a reminder of timeless moral values. It symbolizes friendship between humans and animals while emphasizing discipline, honour, politeness, and usefulness. As we gaze upon this scene from the past century, it reminds us that being kind-hearted extends beyond our own species. This print encapsulates the spirit of scouting – promoting empathy towards all living creatures while teaching important life lessons that remain relevant today.
