Series history

A commemorative label issued for Scouts' Day — 童子軍節 — in the forty-seventh year of the Republic of China (1958). It carries no face value and no postal validity: a cinderella of the Boy Scouts of China, printed in Taiwan.

The design shows a Scout in campaign hat and neckerchief in left profile beside the Scout fleur-de-lis. The heading is 中國童子軍; a vertical slogan reads 負責任守紀律; at the foot stand 中華民國四十七年 and 童子軍節紀念.

Scouts' Day is 5 March. Our sources give no printer or quantity for this label, and Domfil does not list it.
