We offer a very interesting belt with buckle, worn by the members of the Youth tourist union in royal Bulgaria, at the beginning of 20th c. The youth tourist union was established in 1911, in order to be something like a Boy Scout organization. Influenced by Germany and Austro-Hungarian state, in 1941, the union became part of the youth Nazi organization Brannik, similar to the German Hitler’s Youth.
