EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print captures the essence of Scout Patrol signs from 1929. The colour litho technique used in this artwork brings to life the intricate details of each symbol, showcasing the diversity and creativity within scouting. Scout Patrols, as depicted in this image, are named after various birds and animals, such as otter, owl, peewit, sea-gull, swift, and wood pigeon. These symbols serve as recognition for different groups within the scouting community. Each patrol is represented by a unique animal or bird sign that embodies its values and characteristics. The illustration featured in this print is part of the Boy Scouts series of cigarette cards produced by Ogdens. It served not only as an advertisement but also as a means to promote scouting through these collectible cards. As we delve into this vintage card's imagery, we are transported back to a time when marketing strategies were simpler yet equally effective. The use of animal symbolism adds depth and meaning to these scout patrols' identities while appealing to both young scouts and collectors alike. This remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images showcases not just a historical artifact but also highlights the enduring legacy of scouting worldwide. It reminds us of how symbols can unite individuals under one common purpose while celebrating nature's beauty through artistry.
