    All The King's Horses And All The King's Men

    That really is an excellent print. It is reminiscent of the Dewars White Label prints done by Schenley's in the late 1930s and early 40s as a promotional item. These prints depicted officers from various regiments of HM's forces in full or walking out dress. There were five sets of prints, each depicting six different regiments. In 1942 you could have ordered all five sets for the princely sum of $1.25! And that included postage. I hope you have a nice place to hang you highlander.

    This is one of those threads that really makes me happy to be here.

    I have nothing to add--the amount of knowledge is astounding--so I just sit back and read what the other folks write.

    Thanks for a very nice print, and thanks for some very interesting discussions.
