    Post Album images

    Hey All, I threw another dozen plus mounted images in an album off my "Profile" page... Some of them are fairly common if you look for them, others aren't common at all... I don't own any of these, several were sold on the dreaded e-bargin-bay and went through the roof in price, so I copied the image for research sake... Let me know what you think. Most have a better resolution, than the album allowed. If you want a better copy let me know. Enjoy. TEH

    Zack,

    Hey! All I can say is WOW! Great photos!! Most of these I have never seen before and I made sure I saved them to my library. Have not had a chance to look into them very deeply but there can be no doubt these rare photos will be excellent references as to horse equipment, uniforms, etc. Any cavalry fan, be they of CS or US (or other periods) persuasion will find these fascinating and worth the time and effort.
    I urge everyone to take a look at these. Maybe we can post some of the better ones here "one at a time" for some "pickin & grinin". Extra kudos to ya Zack, for making these available.

    Zack,
    Hey, are you sure this is not from your personal album collection of Coley Adair photos? Sure looks like him!.... I particulalry like the dressage whip!
    Coley, I know where the horse went but now that you are retired and have no need for horse gear can I buy that saddle from you?

    I note a preponderance of those "over the knee" boots on the Federal officers' pictures. Also more breast straps than I would have guessed.

    Ken,
    Coley is not going to sell his gear . He is secrelty missing the Critters and is plotting a return as we speak . He misses all of the lovely creatures in the group. I am sure .Ok, I am not sure just spreading lies. I know he misses me most of all.

    Whoa! Did I miss something? Has Coley hung up his spurs? Seriously?!? I've been out of (if I was actually ever in) the loop for a while, but.... TEH

    Coley has "quit the hobby". But then Joe Biden was "not the guy" right up until the time that he was announced as the Democratic V.P. candidate.
    Contact Vegas or your local bookmaker for the current odds on if and when he'll be back.

    He told me he wants to spend more time with his son. Gotta respect that.

    Pete, thanks for the update... I have two children now, so I understand completely where he's at in life. They are only little for a little while. I consider shelving my gear from time to time or even just doing infantry only again... Only time will tell. Thanks, Zack
