On to the First National Jamboree (English poster distributed in the Philippines)
A scout in uniform climbs a hill, one fist raised and a flag in the other, with rows of scouts bearing pennants behind him and a tall monument at right. The text announces the First National Jamboree at Quezon City, 23 to 30 April 1954, for the Boy Scouts of the Philippines. The tell is bandwagon: the crowd of scouts marching up behind the leader invites the viewer to join.
