Tartan ID help

[Richrail]

My wife and I found this skirt in a consignment shop in downtown Reno. Any ideas on the Tartan?

Pollock in Reproduction Colours.

Thank you.

That's not it- black tram lines in place of red. Plus, the olive green over stripe on the red is probably yellow. Dalgliesh used this vet greenish color to represent yellow in their earlier Reproduction weaves.

I don't think that's Pollock, which is a variant of Maxwell hunting and is primarily green.

I think that the color sequence for this tartan is actually:

gkgkgwkryrkw

but it is woven in Dalgelish's "old" Reprodution color scheme, where r= cranberry, g= brown, y=olive green, and k=dark charcoal.

It's the same pattern as the Colquhoun tartan, but with the colors changed.

Brown for blue.
Red for green.
Olive green for red.

Brown for blue.
Red for green.
Olive green for red.

It's not exactly the same pattern. The Colquhoun tartan has the double black lines in the same field (i.e. on the same side of the white line) as the wide black stripes. Whereas this mystery tartan has the double black lines on the other side of the white line (i.e. where the red single line is in the Colquhoun tartan).

Great Eyes! You're absolutely correct. I'm 0 for 2 today. Getting rusty...

Having looked again I see that it's not Pollock but with the K and W reversed and N (gray) for the G. This was recorded on the STA master database pre-2002 as Unnamed C20th sett having been sent for ID my an American gentlemen. I wonder if it was the same kilt?
