The brand image shows the left handshake of the Boy Scouts on a tinted background, above which the lily, the international sign of the Boy Scouts, can be seen. The two-line inscription "50 years Scouting movement in Austria 1912-1962" limits the brand image. In 1907, Robert Baden-Powell, an English officer, later Lord of Gilwell, began to develop a new way of teaching youth. Even the first camps of the so-called Boys Scouts, as the founder called them, brought amazing results. As a result, this movement gained importance well beyond the borders of Great Britain. Scout fraternities were founded in almost all countries of the world before the First World War, in Austria in 1912, after Emerich Teuber, a former officer, got to know the Boy Scout movement on a trip to the United Kingdom. He founded on 1 October 1912 the "Association for the establishment and preservation of a Vienna Scout Corps". As early as 1914, the until then limited to Vienna club was reorganized into the Austrian Scout Federation.
