(Edinburgh, Scotland)1930/2021Postcard (color, white border, divided back, 3 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches) Title on reverse: Scots Guards - The Scots Guards (SG) is one of the Foot Guards regiments of the British Army. Its origins lie in the personal bodyguard of King Charles I of England and Scotland. Its lineage can be traced back to 1642, although it was only placed on the English Establishment (thus becoming part of what is now the British Army) in 1686. It is the oldest formed Regiment in the Regular Army, more so than any other in the Household Brigade. This card is one of a series of 82 depicting statuettes made in the 1930s. They were replicas of the carved wooden models designed by Charles d’Orville Pilkington Jackson (1887-1973) for the opening of the Scottish United Services Museum in 1933. Text on reverse: Scots Guards, Raised 1600. Private. 3rd Foot. Guards Grenadier Coy. 1751. Statuette carved in oak and coloured, from the series by Pilkington Jackson, showing the dress of the Regiments from 1633 in the Scottish National Naval and Military Museum, The Castle, Edinburgh.
