A very nice looking set too Mike - and a particularfavourite of mine too. This is one of the pictures (by Victorian artist Richard Simkin), that I collected of this type of unit, before deciding to paint a version for myself. Hiriart have done a very nice job indeed with their version. johnnybach

Love the Simkin picture.
 
Actually, I didn't notice, when I opened this thread, that the set being offered on eBay is actually a variation of set 1261 Indian Mountain Artillery, Khyber Pass which should have oxen and not mules. The mules appear to be from set 1322 British Mountain Artillery, Kyber Pass. An interesting variation on the original catalog set.
