These items appeared on a well established e-commerce site in July 2020 and refers to a boy named E Bailey. The assumption is that these were found after the death of one of his descendants and the vendor had no further interest in them. But it is a fascinating collection of local memorabilia.
"A very nice lot of assorted vintage United Kingdom Boy Scouts documents / paperwork & photographs from a young man who was a member between 1921 & 1923

3) Walkley scouts & Cubs bank contribution card from the Yorkshire Penny bank from 1925

5) Photograph of E.Bailey in uniform

I was going to research as to what happened to the boy scout after he left the Scout movement but I made no real progress.
