Scouting Australia
The Jamboree Daily; Official Organ of the Australian Jamboree Camp Frankston Victoria Dec 28th 1934 to January 5th 1935
Scouting Australia Frankston Victoria 1935. First Edition. Hardcover Original Cloth. Very Poor. The text is illustrated with black and white photographs advertisements cartoons and back and white illustrations. 1/4 dark green cloth covered backstrip. 3/4 pale green coloured boards with dark green coloured titles and illustration to the front panel. During the dates of December 28th 1934 and January 5th 1935 the Australian Boy Scouts had an international Scouting Jamboree in Frankston Victoria. During that time they printed a daily "newspaper" to commemorate and to celebrate this occasion -- this book is the compilation of this "newspaper". This was the first Boy Scout Jamboree to be held in Australasia and as such Lord Baden Powell and Lady Powell were in attendance. The book is in really really bad shape and words almost fail help to describe it. The corners are bumped and rubbed to the point where the underlying board is visible and the sharp "right angle" corner of the corners has been lost and are now rounded. Both the head and heel of spine are ragged bumped frayed and generally in disrepair and there is splitting and rubbing of the cloth the full length of the spine. There is general discolouration and and staining to the panels along with a red ink mark on the front panel. The internal pages have been printed on newspaper quality paper and consequently it is starting to crumble at the edges and to brown. The endpapers are discoloured and have marks stains and general handling wear. Size: Folio over 12" tall . 64 pages. Please refer to accompanying picture s. Quantity Available: 1. Category: Groups Clubs & Associations; Scouts ; Teens & Young Adult. Inventory No: 0101338. . Scouting Australia hardcover
