Provenance

A combination of the Logan and Skene tartans to honour the first two fur trappers to enter Utah. Sample in STA Johnston Collection. Tartan Society notes add: It is the Logan Tartan TS399 with a white over check added and a blue substituted for a white. Ephraim Logan was an early visitor to Cache Valley in northern Utah in 1824 naming the river after his clan/family name. Official threadcount tripled.
