Mystery Piper??

[Scrimmers]

Good afternoon all

Am I correct in my estimation that this is a piper from either the KOSB or the A and SH??

I am aware that it is a poor pic, but sadly this this only extant copy in the family. We know he is Arthur, but that's about it!.

I can see that it is 1918 at least if not 1919, and he has his Mutt and Jeff Ribands up, and well as x1 wound stripe

Yours aye

This appears to be a duplicate post. Should we merge them? Still no picture showing.

Not sure if badges are visible, but those of course are also different.

I wish I could see the photo!

Here are a couple photos of late Victorian A&SH pipers
