In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the Luss Highland Gathering in 1961. The atmosphere is electric as spectators fill the arena, eagerly awaiting the next event. Amongst them stands a man who would soon become the center of attention - Bob Kerr, the games president. As cheers erupt from the crowd, Bob Kerr decides to add a touch of humor and surprise to this already vibrant occasion. With a mischievous grin on his face, he swiftly whips off his traditional kilt and reveals an unexpected twist – a pair of natty tartan trews! The audience roars with laughter and delight at this playful act. This image captures not only the spirit of camaraderie but also showcases how clothing can be used as an expression of individuality and entertainment. Tartan, symbolizing Scottish heritage and tradition, takes on a new form through Bob's choice of attire. The photograph encapsulates both nostalgia for bygone eras and timeless amusement. It serves as a reminder that even in formal settings like highland gatherings, there is always room for lightheartedness and joviality. With its rich historical context and humorous undertones, this print offers us a glimpse into an unforgettable moment during one memorable summer day in 1961.
