The Leaping Stag is the "miraculous deer" of Hungarian legend.
One day, many years ago, Hunor and Magor were out hunting with a number of men. Suddenly, from a thicket, jumped a beautiful white deer and the hunters started in pursuit. Over mountain sides, across rivers, through valleys and forests, they followed the magnificent animal until they lost the trail in the darkness. The hunters were forced to camp for the night.
In the morning a glorious sight greeted their eyes. In the wild ride they had crossed the borders of their own country and had entered a country about which they had never heard, a country richly endowed with good soil, beautiful forests, fruit, game and fish.
Hunor and Magor decided that this was the land of their choice. They went back for their father's blessing and then returned with their wives to this rich new land. It is told that their descendents prospered and became the Huns and Magyors of the Hungarian nation.
The Leaping Stag of the Jamboree was to lure Scouts from many countries to the friendly Jamboree camp. 26,000 Scouts from 48 countries attended this 4th World Jamboree. Hungary was a part of the world brotherhood of Scouting until 1947, when it was banned by communist dictators. It has since been renewed after the democratic reforms beginning in 1992.
On August 1st, 1963, Greece issued a five-value set in honor of the opening of the 11th International Boy Scout Jamboree at Marathon.
Values and designs are:
- 1 drachma: "Athens at Dawn," a water color by Lord Baden Powell. The painting executed in 1872 depicts the Acropolis and surrounding area.
- 1,5 drachma: A Greek shield of the ancient Boetian type, with a badge of world Scouting in the center. It symbolizes the protection of youth from the powers of evil.
- 2,5 drachma: This is a profile of Crown Prince Constantine, Chief Scout of Greece.
- 3 drachma: Portraits of Lord Baden-Powell of Gilwell and Athanassios Lefkadites, Greek gymnastics teacher, who introduced Scouting in Greece in 1910.
- 4 drachma: A Scout is bugling with a conch-shell, from a photograph taken at Marathon on the first hoisting of the Scout flag during the setting up of a trail camp for the Jamboree in 1962.
If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, and dresses like a Scout, it might just be a Disney Scout stamp. Several Sea Scout and Junior Woodchuck stamps were issued under license from the Disney Studios. This is a portfolio of these cartoon characters on stamps.
Disney Movie Synopsis:
In The Good Scouts, a 1938 Walt Disney Studio release, Donald is leading a Scout troop- consisting of his nephews- on a hike in the woods. Donald isn't nearly the expert on the woods that he thinks he is, much to the amusement of the boys. The film earned an Academy Award nomination. Later in 1939,in Sea Scouts, Commodore Donald teaches the finer points of seamanship to his crew of nephews.
Inter-Governmental Philatelic Corp. of New York City issued and wholesaled multi-country sets of Disney stamps under license beginning in 1979, using artwork specially prepared for this purpose by Disney studio artists. This was an exclusive contract that recently was not renewed by Disney. Disney instead has shifted to limited direct licensing of their artwork for specific new issues. This will likely diminish the opportunity in the future for Disney characters to appear in Scout motif except by design. Prices for many Disney issues including these Scout designs are expected to increase.

Stamps were issued both perforated and imperf.

The reverse of the trading cards is in either French or English.

The Care Bear cartoon characters were created by American Greetings in 1983. They have become a collectible similar to Beanie Babies.
Care Bears appear on greeting cards, books, movies, video, and many other items made by over 200 manufacturers. Care Bears and Care Bear Cousins are the property of Hasbro, Kenner, Those Characters from Cleveland (TCFC), and American Greetings. Postage stamps issued with Care Bear designs were licensed by World Philatelic Marketing.
The Care Bears live in a wonderful place named "Care A Lot" that is full of fluffy white clouds and colorful rainbows. This is where the sun always shines, and the skies are always blue. But Care A Lot isn't all fun. This is also where the Care Bears watch over Earth, and help keep away sadness, worries, and mean people like Professor Cold Heart, No Heart, and Dark Heart, who want to take away all of the caring in the world.
Guinea 1991 [Scott #1178G]
This souvenir sheet is one of 7 values [#1178A-G] in the "Care Bears Promoting Environmental Protection" issue by Guniea.

A Care Bear logo with Tenderheart Bear is also included. The perforated stamp incorporates an image of Lord Baden Powell. The postage is 600 francs, and indicates it is for air transport.
