    Not that I know of, this was part of their London Scottish display in the museum itself.

    It's a long shot, but HEY! that's why you have the Enfield, right? Try contacting the London Scottish Museum, or the Army Museum, both in London.

    Nice photos Glen. I know the cork on the targe spike is done for safety reasons, however, it caused me to picture in my mind a "Politically Correct" Highland charge with safety tipped targe spikes and broad swords. Thanks for posting the photos.

    Thanks for the photos. When I was there, I didn't take one darned picture.

    It's a great place to go, and I encourage anyone who gets in the vacinity to do so.

    McMudo, so sorry that you were this close to us and we didn't get to see you.

    If that was my size I'd have loved to bring it home, alas it is in the museum and not for sale. You do have good taste though here is the description from the museum.

    Glen,

    Thank you SO much for such a great collection of images. I have long wondered what the Scottish Tartans Museum is like and now I have the feeling I have actually been there myself! I love Matt's display walls of tartans and I must confess, my heart missed a beat when I saw the 18th-19th Century box-pleated (tweed?) kilt, but I am glad to know that it's not for sale - at least no-one else can have it either!

    Maybe, just maybe, I'll get to visit that part of the USA myself one day .......... I can dream can't I?

    Take care,
    Ham.
