Thank you, Mike! Did I do something incorrect when I uploaded the images?

Thanks,
Jonathan

Thanks, figheadair; I got that far as well but I don't know how to interpret the other markings.

Regards,
Jonathan

They look like the number of the kilt made by that maker (firm or individual) and possibly some reference to a date and/ customer.

It is easy enough to figure out the size- just buckle the kilt and measure. That may be a useful thing to know. Of course, what is even more useful is knowing if it fits the owner, who can strap it on and see.

There is always a tiny chance that the maker of the kilt will recognize it. Does that say PMH? Does PAUL HENRY mark his kilts that way? Is his middle initial even M? Or have I led you astray for no good reason?

Does the new owner think he may want to sell it?

Hi! Thanks a million for your response. I do not have the kilt but the new owner would like to sell it. I was hoping that by putting the images on this fine forum that maybe some feature or writing may be recognized. There's such a variety of experience and knowledge here.

Thanks,
Jonathan
