Dress Sporran

[mrpharr]

Great debate all. I will have to decide with my family what to exactly do with the piece. It was purchased, like so many other heirlooms, post WWII in London by my grandfather. I'm sure the family did this out of neccessity because of lack of food, money, etc. I just might do all of the above: wear it at the wedding, change to a modern dress sporran at reception, and possibly donate the sporran to the group it originally belongs. But along this note, shouldn't i try to find the family and give it back to them? I'm also sure a collector would pay top dollar. These are all ideas that will be sorted out.
I would have to admit that the emails between Cajunscott and Bob made me gade to have brought the sporran to everyone's attention. It shows that we all have a passion for history, its preservation and the Kilted way. Keep up the posts, they are beyond interesting. I will keep you posted on what other information we discover on this facinating piece of history.
Thanks for your continued interest and remember to keep it civil. Lol.
