Taking advantage of a short interlude - I thought I would post a few more finds from the ether.
First up is a nice front page study from 1897. "They're over there Guv!".

Next one to catch my eye was the bottom row in this page (Graphic again) Titled "Drilling the Idlers". Look at the state of some of those!

Last up for me for a bit (Can't post tomorrow - off to Dorset for a meeting!). Another Martin might be interested in this one - as it shows the arrangements for horses and troopers of The Household Cavalry on a Nile Troop-ship. Notice the prison on a lower deck - Priceless! See you later - jb.

Thank you both (Martyn and JohnnyB) for a first rate thread. ^&cool
The Nile campaign has so much potential for sets of Toy Soldiers and accessories and then displaying them.

A friend of mine made this kit of the African Queen with Humphrey Bogart and Katherine Hepburn.

Wouldn't you know that the Household Cavalry would have a hip bath though?![]()
