Ladysmith City Band with uniforms

The Ladysmith City Band, after having acquired uniforms through public donations, i.e. after about 1905. Note that the third of three trombonist, on the left, is a valve trombonist. Several euphoniums (of various sizes), a tuba, a couple of cornets, and several clarinetists also made up the band, along with the drummer.

Interesting that the conductor shown here is probably I. G. Whitcombe, who, in fact, was a cornetist who was usually playing with the band.
