Earliest known date: August 2010 Oor Wullie's tartan is based on the Black Watch which was his Uncle Wattie's regiment and in this new design the red is from the hackle on their famous bonnets. The silver grey is for Wullie's iconic bucket and for his faithful pet, Jeemie the moose. The black is for his mentor PC Murdoch and for Wullie's dungarees, the yellow is for his tousled gold locks that never see a comb. The three lines on the yellow are for his best pals Fat Bob, Soapy Soutar and Wee Eck. The black and white are for the newsprint of The Sunday Post in which Wullie and his pals have lived for 75 years. See products available Copyright © Blair Urquhart, Comrie, 2015 — ΔT 0.39

  10. Dutch Dress District Tartan Tartan Number: 1133. Earliest known date: 1965 The late Sir Iain Moncrieffe of that Ilk, Albany Herald said, "It should be based on Mackay tartan because of the association with the Chiefs of the Clan Mackay. Baron Aeneas Mackay was Prime Minister of the Netherlands in 1889 and his great grandson Lord Reay, the present Chief, is also a Dutch Baron." The sett chosen was John Cargill's proposal of a simple colour change in respect of the two tartans, Dutch and Dutch Dress. See products available Copyright © Blair Urquhart, Comrie, 2015 — ΔT 1.19
