I think this is really different type of picture. It features 2 women boxing. Back then, people didn't allow woman to box and this picture is really revolutionary.

A vaudeville act. See www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/2989424855/ for a picture of them wrestling.

Super picture. For once, this service dress looks 'used' - creases on a pocket and on the sleeve; bulging right pocket (who knows what!). His tie looks a bit rough, too. Either his batman has let him down, or he has just come inside for a photograph, after a morning's hack. Nice picture. Interesting story.

9th (Queen's Royal) Lancers. Not 9th Battalion.
