ID this tartan?

[Rex_Tremende]

Around the time I started thinking about wearing kilts, I ran across this photo - minus the blurry corner - first on someone's personal page (stupid me: I thought it was the someone), then later on some kiltmaker's page.

Last night I googled kilt images until I found another version of it - smaller, and with the addition of a kiltmaker's mark in the corner. Assuming the colors haven't been Photoshopped much, does anyone recognize this tartan? And, since I'm sure that this has been stolen from some corporate image bank, does anyone know the ad campaign that originated the image?

Rex wants to be this guy (or at least pretend).

Regards,

Well, you can pretend to be this guy, but I have to point out that your hair is going to leave you high and dry in reality! Oh, the prices we pay for getting older!

I like getting older - it comes with certain prerogatives.

Anyway, I'd be happy to have half the hair Steve Ashton has - still twice as much as I have left.

It looks like Buchanan to me.
