Title '28th Bengal Infantry' coloured litho
Nationality British
Period c 1850
Sold

'R. Ackermann's Costumes of the Indian Army, No. 23'. An extremely rare print of a native regiment from the old Bengal Army, pre-Indian Mutiny period. During the Mutiny, this regiment mutinied at Shahjehanpore and was therefore removed from the Army List.

Damaged in several places and rebacked, with part of the lower title missing. Original colours still bright. Some evidence of dirt staining from age.

...acquiring this bayonet has completely changed my way of thinking on collecting bayonets. I have become extremely fond of the bayonet... Thanking you once again for the very professional way in which you handled the money [going to the wrong account] problem.
