I have a copy of this, and a copy of a bugle call record with the Boy 
Scout label. My impression has been that these were Scout merchandise, 
not for general sale. It fits with the fact that my grandfather was for 
a time a Scout Master in Cotuit, Massachusetts, my father being one of 
his scouts. i'd welcome more information - I should check some of the 
1920's Boys Life issues from my father during that period.
