Title: Uniform identification ?WW1
Post by: alimully on Monday 24 January 11 09:47 GMT (UK)

Hi, have come across this photo in a batch I inherited, am trying to identify the uniform, I think it may be WW1 army or police from that time but that is as far as I have got.

Any help gratefully received

Thanks

Alison

for me it looks like an american uniform cavalry perhaps looking at the cap
also why not post it on the photo restoration and dating sec it,s a very nice photo.

Mmm I reckon City of London Police.
The Metropolitan Police have a museum - google it - and they will tell straight away
