EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, created by the talented artist H. L. Oakley, showcases a series of silhouetted scouts engaged in various Scouting activities against the backdrop of a picturesque camping scene. The image is featured on the third page of a leaflet published by B Haram & Co, printers and publishers of The Daily Arrowe, in 1929. Oakley's designs were prominently used as souvenirs for the 3rd World Scout Jamboree, which took place in Birkenhead that same year. The international event brought together thousands of Scouts from around the world, making it a significant moment in the history of the Scouting movement. The silhouettes depict Scouts in various poses, including tying knots, cooking over an open fire, and pitching tents. The camping scenes in the background add to the idyllic atmosphere, with tents pitched in a forest clearing and smoke rising from the campfire. The 1920s, also known as the Roaring Twenties, was a time of great excitement and innovation. This print captures the spirit of adventure and camaraderie that defined the Scouting movement during this era. The image is a testament to the enduring appeal of Scouting and the memories created during those unforgettable Jamborees.
