- 1936 — Jubilee (Artefact) (tartans-authority, record)
Asymmetric. From "Tartan: the Highland Textile". the origin of this design is not recorded but perhaps associated with the silver jubilee of King George V. (there is a relationship to Hunting Stewart ). #5974 gives the same sett but dramatically replaces the azure with scarlet. Details attributed to Margaret MacDougal and J MacGregor-Hastie. Notes in the Tom Sinclair scrapbook dates this to 1936 and the 'Jubilee'. - 01/04/1950 — Jubilee (register-of-tartans, record)
