Description
Including black felt beanie cap with embroidered campfire logo, matching armband with embroidered logo, and a set of carved colorful wooden beads with leather strap. In her autobiography, Child Star, Shirley Temple wrote of an event on April 1, 1940 at the Philharmonic Auditorium in Los Angeles for which Eleanor Roosevelt was invited to speak. "To honor her as national chairman of the Campfire Girls, our local Oki-Hi chapter had delegated three of us to greet her onstage. Donning Campfire beanies, we trooped up bearing broad smiles, long-stemmed roses, and a giant corsage."
