R.T. English Saddle, Collar, and Harnesses (1890s)

I believe it is from 1892 but it's hard to make out.

I couldn't find much about who they were. Searching for R.T. English lands loads of links to Russia Today's english operations, and not much about equestrian products. Leaving out the R.T. results in saddles from England.

Anyway, they made this nice calendar. With R.T. English equestrian products you can appoint yourself like this lad.

Not exact, but best my search turned up! "U.S. Model 1880 Infantry Officer's Dress Helmet"

Curiously enough, it seems like you can get things like this on historical auction sites.

Looks more like a Polish Capza, used by Polish lancers traditionally.
