Slouch hat... Aussie

Not only Australian the slouch hat....rifle looks like a Lee-Metford..photo doesnt look Australian to me

Being the Lee-Metford,predecessor to the Lee Enfields tie its age in to 1888 when the rifle was introduced (1888 – 1926), now i think the Australian mounted troops in 1888 were still using the Martini Henry..ill do a bit more for you when i get home from work..can you tell me his name

The British used slouch hats for years, so it does not make him Aussie. Hard to tell what he is from the picture supplied.

His signature had me flumoxed for a bit there but now I read it as Daniel B. Stewart if that helps.

Looks very similar or the same, with the braid on the cuff and the stripe on the trousers.

The pic looks to have been taken in Egypt if that helps, perhaps with the short time bracket of the Lee Metford's issue.
