I recently ran across this cover and it fits well with an interest of mine but I do need a little information. Can anyone out there identify the specific event referred to in the cancellation? It would appear to be a souvenir post mark but whether it refers to a Jamboree, National or International, I am not sure.

Possibly this has something to do with it?
