For hundreds of similar old brass band pictures from all over the world, go here. Note - I have corrected the error in the link, so try again! (Posting from an iPad can sometimes goof things up...)

I have approximately 100 photos of Military Bands in the U.S. Army taken between 1865 and 1900 at various sites across the American West that I gathered 40 years ago while researching my M.A. thesis. Unfortunately, I do not have the means to scan and post them.

What is your location - maybe somebody can help? Have you checked the pictures site I linked earlier - they have hundreds of US Army Band pictures from that era already. http://www.ibew.org.uk/vbbp-us1.htm

I went through the photos on the web yesterday and only found three that I have in my collection. I'm in Great Falls, MT.

I tried submitting some old band photos to that site a few years ago - got no response. I do not know how often it is updated, but maybe you could try (once you get them scanned.)
