It is a variant of the main Clan Grant tartan, with slightly altered proportions, and with both green and blue darkened, while the red is slightly lighter and more orangey than typical. This regimental tartan is no longer "funded" as part of the MoD uniform specs [1]). The unit began as a Lowland regiment, and after amalgamation (with 51st (Highland) Signal Regiment, et al.) became a pan-Scottish one. There is no evidence of clan usage of this variant of the tartan." - picyrl.com a649272174727d62.jpg Grocery carts with green handles at the Whole Foods store 63d2d596ab6ae9c1.jpg Jane Addams, 1906, by George de Forest Brush (1855–1941), National Portrait Gallery, Smithsonian Institution A 1906 oil portrait of Jane Addams by George de Forest Brush, held at the National Portrait Gallery, Smithsonian Institution.
