National Headquarters Type V Corner with Autographs   FDC Boy Scout Stamp

Printed  Blue on blue #10 envelope National Council, BSA
This remarkable cover was prepared by the addressee, August Howard.  Howard is listed in the 1942 Annual Report as being on the Public Relations Committee of the Division of Program.

Over not less than a 26 year period, using then current National Council stationery from the 1930s, he obtained, in order, the West, Beard, Fisher and Fretwell autographs across the bottom of the cover. Beard wrote a very short message: "Here ‘tis" above his name.  In 1941, Beard passed away and in 1948, West.  Howard, who was both patient and prescient, got his stamp issued in 1950 and prepared his FDC which he had so carefully left a space for.  The Schuck and Houghton autographs were obtained about that time and finally, in 1960-1967 the Brunton and Barber autographs were added.

Thus, a unique FDC with autographs of the first eight leading professionals in Scouting.
