Uniformed Youth Group Advertisements: Non-existent Groups


Figure 1.--This image from a Jefferson Starship albumn shows what looks to be an English Cub Scout, but appears in fact to be a made-up uniform. At least we can not identify it. Click on the image for a more detailed discussion.

Advertisers because of the various youth group regulations and trade mark regulations will often create a uniform made to look like a youth group uniform, usually a Cub or Scout uniform. This is a common convention when the advertisers desire to create the impresson of a youth group in their promotion.
