    random Ebay discoveries...

    Well as usual I'm trolling Ebay for kilt stuff, and today I came across some random things of interest:

    a vintage photo from West Virginia



    a magnificent 1901 sporran



    a strange kiltish thing



    and a strange vintage image of a piper playing at a wedding

    Love the sporran! The kid doesn't look too happy.
    The "Kiltish thing" looks like a watch fob gone wrong.

    eBay is certainly full of interesting things, eh?

    Unless they got the photo backward the "kiltish thing" must be a woman's skirt as the front apron closes to the left rather than the right.

    Now this is just strange...



    and it reminds me of the very strange, almost surreal film here:

    It's even more strange to view it with the sound off...
