    What a great video! Thanks for posting it.

    They mention a their museum in Leith. That makes another reason to go there the next time I'm in Edinburgh, the great pipemaker Sinclair being in Leith also.

    I have four old Highland Dress catalogues from Andersons. I wonder if it's the same firm, or at least the same family.

    The oldest says

    The Scottish National Dress

    Fifth Edition

    William Anderson & Sons LTD
    14-16 George Street, Edinburgh, 2
    and
    155 Hope Street, Glasgow, C. 2

    By Appointment To His Late Majesty
    King George V


    Making it around 1936.

    The other three are from the 1950's and only mention the Edinburgh address.
