test card
https://search.heritageburnaby.ca/link/museumartifact87456
- Repository
- Burnaby Village Museum
- Accession Code
- BV015.35.64
- Description
- test card, Girl Guides; brown, tri-fold thin card; undated; "The Girl Guide / Tenderfoot Test Card” published by Canadian Council / Girl Guides Association; “E. Galbraith”; “12th Burnaby”; “3980 Edinburgh St., North Burnaby, B.C.” handwritten in ink; colour Union Jack flag illustration inside. Lists requirments and progress to earn Tenderfoot status.
- Object History
- Note from donor: These items belonged to Eleanor Galbraith, a longtime Guider who came to B.C. from New Brunswick. It is possible that this card was used for teaching when Eleanor was a leader later on because it has her writing on it; an original card from back in the day would have her leader’s writing, not hers.
