Thanks for the responses. That article by Mr. Newsome was most informative. If I've got it correctly in my head, then I could possibly find the Clark tartan in a range of shades of the main colors, which are Black, Blue, and White. Anything from dark to light, and muted to vibrant. Also, if I understand correctly from Mr. Newsome's article, if I were to find a 'Weathered' Clark tartan, it might actually be different colors than the original, as it would have been designed to look like it sat in a peat bog for a few years, and the colors would have changed with that aging.
Hmmm, it looks like there might be some options out there, that will still remain within the Clark tartan, I'll just have to do some hunting to find them, and then probably do some scrimping and saving to afford them. I'm guessing that since the Clark tartan is family and not clan, there has probably not been as much call for variations in it, and they will probably be a bit scarce and priced accordingly....
Thanks for the help all, time to figure out where I can scrimp and save a bit more for the next kilt
