Highland Dress/Uniform Photos - Various

[creagdhubh]

Greetings,

I have posted several photos featuring men in Scotland, specifically pipers, wearing Highland dress as well as some of the men obviously dressed in their uniform. The point of this thread is simply to "see where it goes," and to strike up (no piping pun intended!) a discussion of the attire and uniforms shown. Some of you, in particular our members from Scotland, may recognise a few of the faces. I realise that 'we' all like photos, so please enjoy and the let the discussion begin!

What a dazzling collection of pictures of some properly dapper folks. The day wear pictures are grand. Ta very much for stickin' those up. They mostly substantiate everything Jock Scot tells us about traditional highland attire. Where did you get them and what date are they? Must be post '52 as the Argyll & Sutherland Highlanders Pipe Major has a Queen's crown on his arm. (At least I think he's Argylls by the Black Watch Kilt and three tasselled hair sporran, someone please correct me if I'm wrong.) Lot of fags being smoked as well I noticed. And the kids sitting on the high wall? That would never be allowed to happen now.

Wow! I noticed the kids on the wall too.

If you look in the background of one of the pictures there is an interesting, purple, jacket being worn.

Did you spot the copper on the hill? And the Morris 1000 convertible...
