Notebook

This tartan notebook was made by W & A Smith in Mauchline in Ayrshire. It dates from the second half of the 19th century and is an example of their highly popular tartan souvenir wares.

The front cover is decorated with a picture of the Scott Monument in Princes Street in Edinburgh.

The popularity of Mauchline's tartan souvenirs confirmed the Victorian interest in things tartan and Scottish.
