Description

wishing to re-establish his tartan - his old pre-1939 kilt had been destroyed in a London air-raid - made an error by centring ONE green line instead of TWO on the red band

the black line was dropped - by mistake or design - in the Vestiarium Scoticum of 1842

is the first document of the tartan

Scottish Antiquarian Society

MACDONALD DRESS (MODERN) ANCIENT wishing to re-establish his tartanIn 1815, members of the Highland Society of London resolved to request each of the Highland chiefs to provide a sample of their clan tartan. The swatches were to be signed and sealed in the chief's own hand. This sett is one of those delivered to the Society between 1815 and 1822.
