- Photographic print; typescript caption attached to verso of print: "Contrary to popular opinion, some women like to tell their age. On March 12th, the Girl Scouts celebrate their 60th birthday and they are telling everyone, including Georgia's Governor Jimmy Carter. Mrs. L. Powell Gahagan, President of the Girl Scout Council of Savannah, Georgia, where Girl Scouting started, wears a 1913 Girl Scout uniform as she presents Governor Carter a copy of the first Girl Scout handbook, entitled 'How Girls Can Help Their Country.' First published in 1912, the original handbook has been reissued to help celebrate the 60th Anniversary. Governor Carter's copy has been inscribed to him by Mrs. Douglas MacNeil, Girl Scout National President. Accompanying Mrs. Gahagan are Atlanta Senior Scouts Myrna Taylor (left) and Amy Stine (right) dressed in the newest uniforms for teen-age Scouts." Verso of print stamped "Mar 12 1972."
