~ Vintage 1929 SCOTTISH TERRIER CLUB Dog BREEDER SCOTTIE ~ This listing has 7 photos for your viewing pleasure. For your consideration is an original vintage yearbook put out by the Scottish Terrier Club of America for their members. Although undated, this refers to recent events in the Scottie show and breeding world of the late 20s, the most recent event being the upcoming Feb. 1930 Westminster dog show. This softcover 45-page publication contains all that you'd expect that would be of interest to the serious pure bred Scottish Terrier breeders and fanciers of the day, including illustrated advertisements for kennels and dogs at stud. At time of writing the secretary-treasurer of the organization was William MacBain of 40 Wall St., NYC. I read on line that he was an important early 20th century judge and breeder, his kennel being Diehard Kennels in Closter, New Jersey.
