管理历史
The original R W Forsyth set up in business as hosier, glover and shirt maker at 5-7 Renfield Street in Glasgow in 1872. In 1897, the business expanded to take over the corner of Gordon Street. Often just known as Forsyth's, the business expanded and opened stores at 26-30 Princes Street and 3 St Andrew Square in Edinburgh in 1906 and at Vigo House near Regent Street in London in 1925. Increasing overheads led the company to closed in 1983 after 111 years. RW Forsyth Ltd was still in family ownership when it ceased trading.

Short, tailored waistcoat in a dark green, wool fabric. The waistcoat has a shawl collar and diamond shaped metal buttons engraved with thistles. At either side of the front opening there is a flap pocket [pocket stitched closed] which has three small, diamond shaped buttons [which match the others on the waistcoat] and some braiding. The back of the waistcoat is made from dark green silk and has a cinch tab at waist level which can be adjusted via a metal buckle to make the waistcoat fit more tightly. The waistcoat is lined in cream silk.
