| Two young boys costumed for what must have been a celebration of the Relief of Mafeking during the Anglo-Boer War in 1900. These two lads wear what could be described as clown costumes made from Union Jacks topped off with a Imperial yeomanry-styled slouch hat the side brim of each being held in place by a Baden Powell pin back and ribbon rosette.
