Default Kiwis in England
These surfaced in an antique shop in Wiltshire in about 1994 - and surfaced again at home today. Both taken in UK, probably locally. That lone Aussie is in dangerous company!

Hello Mike,
Great photos, thanks for posting them. The second one looks like it was taken in Edinburgh. Could you confirm the stamp at lower right corner?
Cheers, Tinto

You are absolutely correct:
Colin Campbell
31 Princes Street
Edinburgh

I identified these two as NZ Rifle Brigade and 14th (South Otago) Regt, with another rifleman and a member of 10th (North Otago Rifles) Regt in the other image.

Bang on, Mike! I wonder if the men in the Edinburgh group were related. I have a similar photo with two Scottish brothers, one in New Zealand uniform and the other in HLI uniform.
Cheers, Tinto
