I also have <strong>The New Spirit Of Scouting<\/strong>\u00a0set featuring ten\u00a0paintings of\u00a0<span class=\"bold\">Joseph Csatari. These prints are also 11&#8243; x 17&#8243; and are great to have as part of my collection. Once again, I did use them in some displays, but since they are newer I did not use them as often. They are in much better shape than the Rockwell print set I have.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>I love the\u00a0<span class=\"bold\">Joseph Csatari<\/span>\u00a0paintings nearly as much as Norman Rockwell. He is a fantastic artist. You can easily see that Joseph was paying attention as he learned from the master. While the Rockwell prints captured the early days of Scouting,\u00a0Csatari&#8217;s paintings capture more of today&#8217;s spirit. During his 60-year association with the BSA, he created more than 150 Scout-themed paintings and drawings.\u00a0Did you know that\u00a0his permanent Boy Scout collection of paintings is housed alongside Norman Rockwell\u2019s at the National Scouting Museum? That is one more reason that I need to make a trip to the museum someday.<\/p>\n<p>I wish the national Scout Shop would sell the Rockwell and\u00a0Csatari print sets again. I bet there are a lot of current friends of Scouting and Scouters that would buy a set for themselves or as gifts. I would probably buy all three sets myself just so I could have an unused set of each in my collection.<\/p>\n<p>Which one of the ten is your favorite? Do you or someone you know own this set?
