    an 1860s photo taken by Peter Lothian, Edinburgh:



    Note the serrated edge to the jacket front, something I don't recall seeing before.

    This sporran is precisely like those worn with tweed "day" jackets in The Highlanders Of Scotland, painted at the same time this photo was taken.

    About the Boer War photo above, why so many injuries to the left arm, none to the right arm?

    Is one of the soldiers missing his right arm?

    Note the differing hosetops, probably indicating different regiments.
