Anderson 1936 catalogue

One could wear a kilt on occasions other than special ones I note, in fact a wedding was when you really went to town with the finery.
I liked the way someone stamped on it that the prices were obsolete, just in case.....
At more than a pound in the prices of these times kilt drawers were a bit dear.
Thank you for sharing this.

Was this considered authoritative information at the time or just advertising?
The kilt pin comment has me wondering.

I like the idea of the Kenmore doublet with a stand collar, something I've not seen in actual pictures before. (pg 17)

Thanks for taking the time to do this so that we all can enjoy reading it. It was a most interesting read. And has already been noted by others, the kilt drawers bit makes me feel better also.

Lot's of jabots with PC style jackets in there.

Very interesting, Richard. Thanks for sharing it here.
After a previous discussion, I was surprised to see a hunting-type sporran in a catalog from that time period.

I can smile confidently and reply, "Aye!"

Only in the evening, Jim.
