Uniforms from a far

 

And now for something different as we do to the otherside of the movement and on the other side of the Atlantic!

Here we have a  complete 1980’s Canadian Girl Guide uniform with all the badges, pins, All-Round cord, whistle, fully adorned hat, the 1984 policy book and the World association Guide and Scout handbook.

Now that uniform does look smart and the badge sash is very practical.
