EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a young Boy Scout in Paris selling "Journee Francaise" medals during the tumultuous years of World War I. The image, taken between 1914 and c1915 by Bain News Service, showcases the spirit of youth actively participating in fundraising efforts to support their country during wartime.
The French boy scout is dressed in his uniform, proudly displaying the medals he is selling to passersby on the streets of Paris. His hat tilted slightly to one side adds a touch of charm to his earnest expression as he engages with potential customers.
In the background, other figures can be seen going about their daily activities, providing context for the bustling urban environment in which this scene unfolds. The historical significance of this moment is palpable, as it reflects a time when communities came together to support their nation's war effort.
This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by individuals – both young and old – during times of conflict. It captures a snapshot of history that speaks volumes about resilience, patriotism, and solidarity in the face of adversity.
