  • The first issue was published in March of 1911. The mission of Boys' Life magazine is to entertain and educate America's youth and to open their eyes to the joyous world of reading. This is accomplished through a proven mix of news, nature, sports, history, fiction, science, comics, and Scouting. Currently Boys' Life magazine is a general-interest magazine published monthly in two or three demographic editions for boys from first grade through high school. The covers are the same, but each edition has its own 16 to 20 age-specific pages. The first demographic divisions by age group started in 1995. Boys' Life is the flagship youth publication of the Boy Scouts of America—many stories and articles in Boys' Life reflect the program themes of Cub Scouting and program features of Boy Scouting. Some years they did geographic destination or specific market issues. The demographics of ages and of boys or girls changed in Scouting. Starting in January 2021 Boy's Life was renamed to Scout Life magazine.
  • In general it is not guaranteed that all original pages are in this specific magazine. There may or may not be missing pages. By design not all page numbers were originally numbered. In addition, different ages, location, or other demographic may have different content or page count. It is quite common for these issues over the years to loose pages by someone taking them out for a school project or other reference. It is very hard to know if a page is missing because, well, it's missing.
