    The Hamish collection

    For the past month I have been trolling through old posts and have come across many pictures old Hamish's kilts as he got them. Is there any gallery of Hamish in his kilt collection? I am trying to show my wife his great collection of kilts and accessories (like the kilt pin he wore with the Breton tartan kilt). I can't imagine a better resource for ideas.

    If you go to HOME and then scroll all of the way down, you should be able to find THE MAN AND HIS KOLLECTION, among a handful of Hamish topics. It is a heading like GENERAL KILT TALK. FORUM> THE MAN AND HIS KOLLECTION, I believe

    At one time Hamish had his entire collection photographed and published on the web. Unfortunately the site his collection was hosted on went broke and the entire work was lost.
    Hamish has been trying to re-construct it but his health in the last two years has prevented the collection from being re-published.

    Can we gather our resources and help, Steve? I'm sure you would make XMarks available for pics of the Kollection as the basis for a massive collection of kilts in collection. Hi-res pleats and aprons, ancient and yesterday; figheadair to Alt. Perhaps a topic for this Monday over lunch?

    Do you know what the original URL was? It might have made it into the internet archive.

    I just checked "The Wayback Machine" and it seems as though it was not archived...
