EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and nostalgic print captures the Cyclist Scout Badge from 1923, a testament to the dedication and skills of young scouts in the early 20th century. The colour lithograph showcases an illustration from the Scout Series of cigarette cards produced by Ansties Gold Flake Cigarettes. To earn this prestigious badge, a scout had to demonstrate their knowledge of bicycle maintenance and repair, ensuring their trusty two-wheeler was always in excellent running order. Additionally, they were required to exhibit proficiency in reading road maps and accurately relaying verbal messages. The image evokes a sense of adventure and camaraderie as it portrays a young scout proudly donning his uniform while astride his bicycle. This vintage card serves as both advertising for Ansties Gold Flake Cigarettes and a celebration of scouting achievements during that era. Transporting us back to the 1920s, when cycling was gaining popularity as both a sport and mode of transportation, this print encapsulates the spirit of youthfulness intertwined with determination. It reminds us of simpler times when badges were earned through practical skills rather than digital accomplishments. A true collector's item, this print offers an intriguing glimpse into scouting history while also showcasing the artistic talent prevalent during that period. Whether you are passionate about cycling or intrigued by vintage memorabilia, this piece is sure to captivate your imagination with its timeless charm.
