Boys' Life,
The Boy Scout Magazine, was Published monthly by
the Boy Scout's of America since 1911,
until the name was change to "Scout
Life" in 2011. There were over 40
covers during this time, with a
baseball theme and countless
advertisements.
The April 1965 Boys' Life features cover art by Society

talented author, was a major league
star that pitched for the Cubs, white
Sox, Indians, and the pennant winning
Reds in 1961.
