British Zulu War 24th of Foot Inspired Uniform Set Original Items

Original and Newly Made Items: Only a handful of sets available. Each set includes the following-

• Red Tunic- Original British army red tunics found in the back of the IMA warehouse long forgotten since the 1980s. Original British army red tunics dating from post 1901 complete with all brass post 1901 buttons showing the King’s Crown. The tunics, mostly with navy blue collar and cuffs, no longer have any regimental badges so can be tailored to any regiment you desire. Sizes are small but perfect for a display manikin.
• Coveralls- Original tapered pair of navy blue coveralls (pants) displaying a wide red stripe on the outside of each leg. Sizes are small but perfect for a display manikin.
• British 1871 Valise Equipment in Buff White Leather- New Made Heavy White Buff Leather just like the original field equipment, this is the Model 1871 Valise Buff Leather Equipment Set as used by the British Infantry with the 577/.450 cal. Martini Henry Rifle. Comprised of: adjustable waist belt with brass 24th Regiment of Foot Badge belt buckle, pair of cartridge box pouches, over the shoulder cross straps, leather bayonet frog and black leather accouterments pouch. Comes in the correct White Buff Leather, just like the originals, with polished brass hardware,
• British P-1871 Victorian Colonial White Pith Helmet with 24th of foot brass helmet plate. New Made but constructed, as in Victorian times, of cloth covered cork type material with light adjustable leather liner (adjustable) and adjustable leather chinstraps; one size fits all. This New Made Pith Helmet is perfect for wearing or for your Military display. This pattern developed in 1871 Tall White Pith Helmet as used in the ZULU Wars and the various Indian Campaigns, the standard for over 20 years.

Regrets: no sizing available on the tunic or pants. These were custom fit for the soldier they were issued to. Helmet and Valise equipment are one size fits most.
