Poster prints are budget friendly enlarged prints in standard poster paper sizes (A0, A1, A2, A3 etc). Whilst poster paper is sometimes thinner and less durable than our other paper types, they are still ok for framing and should last many years.

1. Title: "Boys of No.1 Scout Troop, Kingston, Jamaica: A Moment of Discipline and Camaraderie on the Road" This evocative photograph captures the essence of scouting in the colonial era, as the Boys of No.1 Scout Troop from Kingston, Jamaica, stand proudly along a winding road, their staves at the ready. Dressed in their full scout uniforms, complete with hats and badges, these young boys exude a sense of discipline, focus, and determination. The scene is set against the lush, tropical backdrop of Jamaica, with the vibrant greenery and clear blue sky serving as a picturesque contrast to the boys' uniforms. The road, which winds through the landscape, adds a sense of adventure and exploration, as if these scouts are embarking on a grand expedition. The historical significance of this image is not lost on us. Scouting was introduced to the Caribbean during the colonial era, with the first scout troop in Jamaica being established in 1910. This photograph, taken likely in the 1930s or 1940s, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the impact of colonialism on the region and the enduring appeal of scouting as a means of instilling values of responsibility, leadership, and teamwork in young people. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time, witnessing a moment of pride and camaraderie among these Jamaican scouts, as they prepare for their next adventure on the road. The Boys of No.1 Scout Troop serve as a reminder of the rich history of scouting in the Caribbean and the enduring spirit of adventure that continues to inspire generations.
