Northumberland Fusilers S. A. war
Traditional 54mm Toy Soldiers

The helmet was light and was coloured khaki. Although khaki was used in India as far back 1846 it took a while before it became general issue. One can still see paintings and drawings of the 1880s and 1890’s of the khaki helmet used with the red coat and blue trousers or khaki coat and blue trousers. There were no badges on this type of helmet. The belt and webbing could be either white or black for other ranks and brown for officers.
