He succeeded to the chiefship in Nov of 1936. I cannot tell if those are two silver feathers on his crest badge ( which would indicate it is pre Nov 1936 ) or some method to secure a plant badge. Two feathers wouldn't be really correct for the heir in any case. The photo of my father at the Argyllshire Gathering was taken a year or two before this one. I think this photo also shows Young Campbell of Dunstaffnage (3rd from right), who is a bit younger in the pic with my father.
