Registration notes:	The Entre Rios Province District Tartan was designed by Edward Macrae in 2007 and is based in the sett of the Graham of Menteith tartan where the blue was changed into red and the central black stripe into white. The colours of the tartan reproduce the Shield of Entre Rios province and the central white line a silver star with five points, the principal symbol in the shield representing peace and clemency. Red represents the federal system of government and green, hope and the fields of the province. Robert Cunninghame Graham, Laird of Gartmore, born in 1852, came to the province of Entre Rios in 1870 to farm. In 1878 he went back to Britain and became a well known writer, traveller and Member of Parliament. He was the founder and first president of the Scottish National Party in 1934 and always remembered his young years of gaucho life in the pampas.
