Cub Service, 1929
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a vibrant and nostalgic print that captures the spirit of young scouts in the early 20th century. The colour lithograph showcases a group of Wolf Cubs, also known as Cub Scouts, aged between 7 and 11, engaging in their preparatory stage before becoming full-fledged Scouts. The illustration originates from the Boy Scouts series of cigarette cards produced by Ogdens. It beautifully depicts these young boys dressed in their scout uniforms, diligently carrying out their duties with enthusiasm and dedication. In line with the Scout's promise, they are seen helping others and doing a good turn every day. The scene portrays various activities emblematic of this era: a boy hammering nails into woodwork, another tending to laundry in a washing basket while one cubber stands ready to assist him. These tasks symbolize responsibility and instilling values such as duty and service from an early age. This vintage card not only serves as an advertisement but also evokes nostalgia for simpler times when children were encouraged to be active members of society. It reminds us of the importance of teaching young ones about community engagement and fostering empathy towards others. With its charming depiction of youthful innocence combined with lessons on teamwork and personal growth, "Cub Service, 1929" remains an enduring testament to the timeless ideals upheld by scouting organizations worldwide.
