<p>[QUOTE="springfld.arsenal, post: 54565, member: 54"]Pic is 1884 or later due to the Springfield m1884 military rifles. Possibly a Nat. Guard unit. All rifles have slings properly rigged which probably means this is really some military unit despite lack of hair discipline. Notice that pair of creatures on far right top and bottom are most likely twins-check the matching ears. Upper right creature may be mentally-challenged. May also be a militia unit of some kind-there were zillions in late 19th C. In US. Interesting photo. Actually it looks like these may be all the males in one family-perhaps dad and 3 brothers, forget military unit unless something to do with militia.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
