British Cav Pictures by Gilbert Holiday (1 Viewer)

[Dettingen]

I was lucky to buy a big old book called "Horses and Soldiers" published in Aldershot in 1938. It features the art of Gilbert Holiday, who had died just before publication. Lots of great pictures, here are some you may enjoy.
1. 17th/21st Lancers Trick Riders at Olympia exhibition, 1930
2. King Edward VIII reviewing Horse Guards, Windsor Great Park, June 1936
3. Horse Guards Old Guard detachment returning to barracks
4. Red Caps
5. B/W sketch of unidentified drummer, believe RHA?
