EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph from the 1950s, a proud Queens Scout named Summerfield from the 1st Leighton Buzzard Group is seen selling Coronation programmes to local councillor F A Meyer JP, at the Coronation Scout Camp in Leighton Buzzard High Street. The year is 1953, and the historic occasion is the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II on the 2nd of June. The setting is the bustling High Street, where a festive atmosphere fills the air as people from all walks of life come together to celebrate this momentous event. Summerfield, wearing his full scout uniform with badges gleaming, exudes a sense of pride and determination as he engages in a lively sales pitch with Councillor Meyer, who listens attentively while leaning on his walking stick. A curious dog looks on from the side, adding a playful touch to the scene. In the background, a tent and a table display an array of Coronation programmes, ready for sale. The road is lined with onlookers, some of whom are also dressed in their Sunday best, adding to the sense of community and excitement. This photograph captures a moment in history, where the spirit of scouting and the sense of camaraderie are on full display. It is a poignant reminder of a bygone era, where people came together to celebrate the coronation of their monarch and support their local scout groups. The image is a testament to the enduring legacy of scouting and its role in shaping the lives of young people, as well as the importance of community and tradition.
