Another cry for help, do you know this tartan?
Hi all
In a recent Burns Night thread I posted some pictures of a gentleman and a pipe band in a very interesting tartan, silly me I did not think to ask at the time what tartan it was since then people have been asking me what it is and try as I may I can not find it, so Rabble to the Rescue does anyone know this tartan?

Matt's the expert but I would have said Ontario (Ensign of). A tartan I've had my eye on for over a year now.

Here's the PV Red Gordon from Marton Mills in a USA Kilt Casual

The front on the Hopi.
Not sure if Marton Mills intended an ancient look, but the colors of the PV do seem sort of muted.
Was a special order deal a while back. On the PV its hard to decide on the gray type color...its kinda blue too...
