    LOL Ebay photo description

    Well if you're going to get the information wrong on a historical photo, you just as well might go all-out.

    Yes these are soldiers with kilts and guns (well, the purist would argue the "gun" part). But every other part of the description is incorrect.

    -they are not members of The Scots Guards
    -they are not wearing bearskin caps
    -they are not of the Crimean War period
