The mermaids of Girl Scouting had fun in the sun with their Girl Scout swim suits on!
The first official Girl Scout bathing suit was listed in the 1930 catalog, and the last time one was listed was in 1970. They were usually listed in the Spring issue, but did not show up every year.
The only thing that identifies this bathing suit as Girl Scout is the label. The catalog listing is from 1930.
