Description: This historic commemorative postage stamp represents the 2/6 (two shillings and sixpence) denomination issued by the Islands of Bermuda. The visual composition features two interlocking circular ribbon wreaths colored in soft turquoise tones against a textured grey and white canvas. The left loop houses a large, polished golden fleur-de-lis accented by two black five-pointed stars, serving as the international emblem of the Boy Scouts movement. The right loop encapsulates the Royal St. Edward’s Crown above the royal cipher "E II R" in matching gold tones. Intertwining the two emblems is a flowing banner inscribed with the sacred scouting motto "ON MY HONOUR." The upper margin bears the dark red text "1915-1965 FIFTY YEARS OF SCOUTING," while the lower baseline neatly displays the territory name and pre-decimal currency designation. A bold, crisp circular town cancel reading "HAMILTON BERMUDA 5-PM 26 OCT" overprints the right portion of the vignette.
