Newfoundland Tartan MacKintosh Tartan green symbolizes nature and connectionHistorical Context The Newfoundland Tartan, created in 1955 by the St. John's Tartan Society, symbolizes the province of Newfoundland and Labrador rather than any specific clan. Designed by Samuel B. Wilansky, a local businessman from St. John's, this tartan reflects the region's rich history and cultural identity. It represents snow, the sea, the Royal Newfoundland Regiment, and the forest, encapsulating the natural beauty and heritage of the area.
