Wow am I happy today. I accidentally bumped into this one day on ebay and bid on it because I thought I'd take a $23.51 gamble (plus 7.85 shipping). It came parcel post today. it was crammed into a little box and when I took it out it just fell right back into shape. As you can see it still had the tack stitches in it and apparently never worn. The buckles are a little rusty but functional. (someone correct me if I'm wrong) The tartan is Cameron of Erracht, designed for the Queen's Own Cameron Highlanders raised by Cameron of Erracht in 1793. It appears bright in the pictures but is very dark in daylight. It was never adopted by the clan. It has 27 pleats and a classic pin. The two belt loops are for a 1.75 inch belt max. All hand stitched. Here are some pictures

Look at them pleats (quick pressing)
Not a bad investment
