Gordon Highlanders Sporran
Hello,
Are there any Gordon Highlanders experts out there? The attached photos are of what I think is an officer's sporran for the 5th (Deeside Highland) Volunteer Battalion Gordon Highlanders, but I have never been able to confirm this identification. This Bn wore the same uniform from 1876-1908 and did not adopt the full Gordon kit until becoming a TF Bn in 1908. The Gordons Museum does not answer my email. I would be grateful if anyone with knowledge in this area could comment. Mike

Mike,
Sorry I cannot help, a lovely item. I am sure you have a copy of Grierson but that is of no help either. Do you know Charlie Claydon of Bluebell Militaria, might be worth contacting him. P.B.

I do not know Charlie Claydon, but I do know his Bluebell website. I shall introduce myself and ask him my question. Thank you for the lead. Mike
