EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, Lieutenant-Colonel Percy Albert Guthrie of the 236th Battalion, also known as "The Maclean Kilties of America," is seen wearing full military regalia in 1917. The image was captured by the renowned photography studio, Harris & Ewing. Born in Canada, Guthrie was a barrister and soldier who served in the Canadian Expeditionary Force during the First World War. He was wounded in France and later rose to the rank of Lieutenant-Colonel. The Maclean Kilties of America was a battalion of the Canadian Expeditionary Force raised in the United States, primarily from Scottish-American volunteers. Guthrie's uniform in the photograph is adorned with various insignia and decorations, including the Star of Italy and the Canadian Military Cross. He wears a kilt, which was a traditional part of the uniform for Scottish regiments, adding to the distinctive appearance of the Maclean Kilties. The photograph was taken during the early 1900s, a time when military fashion and uniforms held significant importance and were often intricately designed. The image is a testament to the history of the Canadian military and the role of Scottish-American volunteers during the First World War. The photograph was taken by Harris & Ewing, a well-known photography studio based in Washington D.C. The studio, founded by George H. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze, was a prominent supplier of photographs to the US Congress and other government agencies. This image is part of the vast Harris & Ewing Collection held by the Library of Congress. Overall, this photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the military fashion of the time and the role of Canadian and Scottish-American soldiers during the First World War.
