The designer obviously took a short cut with Nos 4796, 1482, 5286 & 5126 in this series since they are all based on the Royal Stewart and have the same threadcount but vary in one colour or shade of colour – pointed out by John Fitzpatrick in his July 2008 review of Canadian tartans. This is exactly the same as #5126 Sir Samuel Leonard Tilley and all the designer has done is change a few shades but not the colours.
