This vibrant and eye-catching advertisement from 1926 showcases the traditional Highland dress offered by William Anderson & Sons Ltd, a renowned clothing company based in Edinburgh and Glasgow. The colour lithograph print captures the essence of Scottish heritage and pride, with its depiction of men dressed in kilts, tartan patterns, and other elements of authentic highland attire. The advertisement not only promotes the company's trade but also serves as a historical snapshot of British fashion during the early twentieth century. It reflects the enduring popularity of traditional Scottish dress, which has become synonymous with Scotland's rich cultural identity. The attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this graphic design piece - from the intricate patterns on the kilts to the carefully crafted sporran accessories. The inclusion of socks completes each ensemble, ensuring that customers are provided with a comprehensive selection for their highland outfits.
