Title Carte de visite, British captain, Queen's Own Corps of Guides
Nationality Indian
Period c 1890
Sold

Nice example of an officer (in number one uniform - see silver braid cap and bullion epaulettes) from a crack cavalry regiment (silver chains on leather crossbelt only worn by QOCG). The crossbelt does not sport pickers and chains, indicating an undress/combat scenario. (The attribution to QOCG is tentative.)

Just letting you know that the whistle arrived here this morning safe and sound. Your excellent packaging was still totally intact and it took me all of five minutes to break into it to see my purchase. I am very pleased, it is a great whistle.
