Very scarce certificate from the early years of the youth organization founded by Luther H. Gulick (1865-1918), which began as an all-girls group meant to mirror the Boy Scouts of America, originally called The Camp Fire Girls. Gulick was also a founding member of the phys. ed. dept. at Springfield College, where he challenged a young James Naismith to invent a youth game suitable for indoors play during the offseason. He later helped spread and popularize Naismith's innovative game, basketball. Gulick, being in the Naismith Hall of Fame, is an important signature and also one that is incredibly elusive. .
