But it may be a while. We have several more nineteenth century tartan books to photograph and upload first. But eventually, it will be available on our site, as well. In the meantime, if anyone wants to come to Franklin and make an appointment....

Perhaps I now know where there are twelve! Matt, is the copy in the Museum the same one formerly owned by Stuart Davidson?

I'll have to double check the frontispiece but I believe our copy has an ex libris book plate of Macgregor of Macgregor.

Then your copy will probably have belonged to Helen Macgregor of Macgregor, one of the original subscribers. I know Stuart had a copy, although I don't know who owned it before him; I wonder what became of it.
