    I purchased a pre-WWII MOD Hunting Stewart off of e-Bay, but it didn't fit, so I sold it to another X-Marker.

    I have a Seaforth Highlander kilt from 1952 but alas it is too small and too short for me. It's probably a 30" waist which I haven't been for some time. You can barely make out the date in the bottom right corner of the label. The buckles need replacing but it's in fine condition otherwise.
