Ceylon Light Infantry officers headdress?

Hello all,

By any stretch, would anyone happen to have pics or illustrations of CLI officers headdress c. 1890’s?? Thanks in advance...

There's an example illustrated in Renfrew's "British Colonial Badges" - " 1094 is Ceylon Light Infantry helmet plate circa 1890" 1097 is "Ceylon Light Infantry Cap badge 1881>1949" - Tim

Hi Tim,

Thanks... yes I have that book - and sorry, I should have been more specific... I am looking for examples of period photos of CLI officers showing the badges in wear (or alternately pics of original headdress with badge affixed). Have anything like that?
