Nice older (1960s-1970s) WE Scott seal Evening sporran, looks to be the nicer version with silverplate top, 8 pounds.
(USA buyers beware!) https://www.ebay.com/itm/226353658736
Comes with what looks like a Pakistani Lovat Green jacket and waistcoat in 50L.

Under $300 for a musquash full mask sporran is really good!
The condition looks excellent. It's by WE Scott.

WE Scott black leather with seal front, around 20 pounds.
A massive bargain for somebody in the UK.
US buyers beware due to the seal, and the super-high Ebay Global Shipping Program fee.

Again super for those in the UK, four sporrans for one pound. I do believe all four are Scottish-made.

There's the typical horsehair pipe band sporran, but this is an older one, much nicer than the ones they make nowadays.
And a sealskin evening sporran, and a pony (?) evening sporran, and a plain brown leather sporran.
Oh, and spatz

Who's got their eye on this?

A fine example of a hunting sporran than came out of Scott's Edinburgh workshops c1960s - in splendid condition.
I reckon it's worth double the current price, and more - if only to get the brass cantle, which has the magical 'Made in Scotland' embossing.
And it's already in the USA...

The seller has a nice little line-up of sporrans available - including a full mask in classic style.

Yes that brown & brass WE Scott hunting sporran is far better than the ones they're making nowadays.
Note that it has the scribe-line on the back which appeared in 1953 and was retained for, what, around a decade?
It has the EW1 cantle, as seen in the older catalogues.
In the 1990s, with a chrome EW3 (pierced) cantle, and done up in black, it became the most popular Pipe Band sporran in the world.
I saw contests where every single band was wearing those.

Won't post to USA due to seal, which is wise.
For those in other places here are two very nice WE Scott seal Evening sporrans for 45 pounds each.
