The cub scout annual 1974



If the Christmas entry on the main blog reflect that for me at least this christmas was in 1974  more or less redux then it might seem apt to look at something else of that year although it would of been Christmas 1973 because annuals are almost without exception printed in the year before the one they are for so you have for the year rather than it being the annual of the year.

The popularity of the program needless to say lead to a number of annuals for pack members and outside of The Sixer this is one of the same era I have.

It follows a similar style to The Sixer except for having less to say about the Awards and things you can do to earn them which seems odd as this one was an ‘official’ publication.

As ever, the front cover is very much activity centred this time on a camp Tug Of War between two packs with participants being encouraged by the adults in attendance that does reflect something of the spirit of being a cub in that era
